Hi All,

I've set up IrDA between by laptop and a Pocket PC PDA (HTC Alpine marketed as
an Xda IIi on an O2 contract in the UK). I can use it to dial up using the
PDA as a modem. So far, so good. However, I want to transfer a file from
the PDA to the laptop and although I've set up minicom to do that, using
zmodem, it fails every time.

Is there something else I need to set up?

Could you please give me some pointers?
