comms/birda with p900

hello list

i was wondering if ever anyone tried to send files/data from an sony
ericsson p900 mobile phone via infrared to a freebsd machine.

the experience i made:

- i installed the birda port (comms/birda) version birda-1.00_2

i have:
 kern.osrelease: 5.2.1-RELEASE-p6
 kern.osrevision: 199506

as root i am trying to receive an obex object via notebook (compaq evo
n610c) internal infrared port.

the phone shows a status bar and actually seems to send the data but
then says "Could not connect"

simultaneously i get the following output from irs:

# irs -d /dev/cuaa1 -e -o -g
bad length in OBEX packet 509>508
add to collBuf 508+1 (509)
bad length in OBEX packet 509>508
add to collBuf 508+1 (509)
bad length in OBEX packet 509>508
add to collBuf 508+1 (509)
bad length in OBEX packet 509>508

the same test works fine with a plam V. irs receives data, dumps it into
an obex file and exits (-e).

might the p900 have an erroneous implementation of the obex protocol?

i would like to hear your experience you made with your p900 or similar
mobile phones.

thanks in advance
emanuel
