That one is only guaranteed to work with non-pluggable IrDA interfaces on startup, such as the one found in some laptops. It needs the dongle to be plugged in before starting. Try /sbin/service irda restart, or your equivalent in your distribution, *after* plugging your dongle. Or you could manually start discovery after plugging your dongle, by doing: /usr/sbin/irattach irda0 -s
