Also, I don't have a serial port on my laptop, but my USB to serial converter creates a device called /dev/ttyUSB0. All these devices are present on my system (Ubuntu latest), but I have no idea how to check if they are valid. Obviously, sending data to /dev/ttyS0 would do nothing on my laptop.
You could setup handshaking routines to check and see if there's a device that can respond on all of those devices. Your device would have to be able to do hardware or software handshaking though. Other than that, it's out of my league. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
