>I got cu to work on /dev/ttyS2 . That is odd due ti the fact there are only >two serial ports on my system, it would open ttyS0 but not ttyS1 Could someone tell me why this is? I mean ttyS2 would be com2, right? I only have two serial ports on my system, bmike1]$ sudo cu -s 9600 -l /dev/ttyS0 Connected. ... and that is all the fat lady said. I pressed any button but get no response. ttyS1 is even worse: bmike1@3[bmike1]$ sudo cu -s 9600 -l /dev/ttyS1 cu: open (/dev/ttyS1): No such device cu: /dev/ttyS1: Line in use bmike1@3[bmike1]$ How can the line be in use when the device doesn't exist? You know, this got me thinking that I should try minicom. So I did and..... IT STILLLLL DIDN'T WORK! Thanl goodness I learned about cu.
