Unfortunately I can't compile the new driver. I modified the Makefile to
 comment out versioning (which i don't use) and change kernelversion
 to an appropriate 2.5.44, but it fails like this:

This happens with both drivers pointed by your page.
Perhaps 2.5.44 is too new for this driver ?

OK... found finally time to re-test, I ran today the 10/30 smsc-ircc2 driver
 under RedHat 8.0, kernel 2.5.45 and the 115200 limit (after patching the
 few remaining uses of __FUNCTION__ in smsc-ircc.c), and the GPRS
 link stays up instead of going down after < 3 minutes. Speed is definitely
 slower (using the GPRS link) than the current 2.4.20-rc1 / smc-ircc combo
 but given the record of GPRS performance 'round here I do know it's not
 meaningful yet - I'll repost with irdadump logs if performance stays on the
 low end (my "fast" transfers peak at 3.9KB/s, the slowness of today's
 tests was about 0.2KB/s).

Under 2.5 I keep being spammed by

Nov  2 17:02:52 dolphin kernel: IrLAP, no activity on link!
Nov  2 17:03:37 dolphin last message repeated 2 times
Nov  2 17:04:52 dolphin last message repeated 8 times

while a substantially lower amount of spam under 2.4 tells me

I have a PPP over IrDA connection to my Nokia phone; under 2.4.20-preX I have no
 problem keeping the link up, while in 2.5.4x it fails in a very short time like this:

Oct 13 01:13:13 dolphin kernel: IrLAP, no activity on link!
Oct 13 01:13:11 dolphin kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: irda0: transmit timed out
Oct 13 01:13:11 dolphin kernel: irda0: transmit timed out

Oct 13 01:13:13 dolphin kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: irda0: transmit timed out
Oct 13 01:13:13 dolphin kernel: irda0: transmit timed out
Oct 13 01:13:13 dolphin pppd[5378]: Modem hangup
Oct 13 01:13:13 dolphin pppd[5378]: Connection terminated.
Oct 13 01:13:13 dolphin pppd[5378]: Connect time 1.8 minutes.
Oct 13 01:13:13 dolphin pppd[5378]: Sent 19541 bytes, received 35933 bytes.
Oct 13 01:13:13 dolphin pppd[5378]: Exit.

I also get the transmit timed out spam (why one with WATCHDOG and one without ?)
 in 2.4.20-pre but the IrLAP line isn't there. And the GPRS link stays up...


Thanks in advance for any insight,
