[ILUG] infrared and bluetooth???

[ILUG] infrared and bluetooth???

I have infrared in my laptop and have been told that my telephone (Sony 
Ericsson T68i) functions with Linux synchronizing etc. and, hopefully, 
functions as a modem.  If anyone can help me configure infrared in the 
laptop and use the phone to synchronize or function as a modem I would 
be very appreciative.  I am a newbie and am still slowly configuring 
Mandrake 10.0 on my laptop.  I am extremely delighted to have avoided 
viruses for the last week, having no need to use Windows XP at all!!!!  
My external floppy is not yet functional nor are the DVD player programs 
(and I have tried three), but I am not too worried about these as the Cd 
is functional for reading and writing.  Lots to learn and lots to do yet.

Also my laptop has a conceptronic usb bluetooth adaptor which allow me 
to connect via bluetooth.  If anyone has any knowledge of whether Linux 
supports bluetooth yet please advise me.  I have not seen any bluetooth 
drivers for Linux on the Conceptronic website.

Step by step basic instructions would be very helpful..


Sean
