Alessandro,

I have been using the IrDA interface for several years now over several 
versions of Ubuntu (including Xenial), downloading from a Galileo Luna 
and Sol.

What procedure do you follow to install the IrDA driver?

What commands are required to activate IrDA on your machine?

Kind regards,
