[ubuntu-uk] Can't connect my Nokia 6021 via irda and gnokii

[Batty]

I'm trying to connect my nokia 6021 via a USB infrared dongle.
PC AMD 2200+
Distro Ubuntu Dapper Drake 606
Kernel 2.6.15-27-k7
Gnokii 0.6.12-0ubuntu3
USB irda Dongle Belkin FSU230(FIR3.2)

Having read numerous posts from all over the web, I haven't found anyone
who has reported getting a Nokia 6021 to connect over irda (except one
who unhelpfully just quoted
Quote:
It works with ircomm over irda too.
My port is dev/ircomm0
But I don't even know what distro this person was using.

One of the posts I have read (forget which now) suggested that the nokia
6021 only worked at 9600 baud (hence having tried it at this speed. I
have also tried it at 19200 (default).

>From what I can tell, the irda dongle is working fine. It tries to
connect to anything out there, but it does not get any response from the
nokia.

Has anyone got any advise. I would greatly appreciate it as I need to
backup (400+ phone numbers etc...) my old phone (screen smashed in car
accident) to restore to my new phone.

Thanks in advance.

Here's what I have done (condensed, I have skipped numerour oops!).

On connecting the irda I get the following on the usb hub
Code:

#lsusb | grep -i irda Bus 003 Device 041: ID 050f:0180 KC Technology,
Inc. KC-180 IrDA Dongle
