Hi all, 

I bought the cable off dtvcontrol.com and hooked it up to my backend.
I am having problems however as I don't believe I'm talking from my
serial port to the sat box.

Any idea how to verify if my serial port is working or not?

I do have ..

$ ls -lh /dev/ttyS*
lr-xr-xr-x    1 root     root            5 Aug  2 16:57 /dev/ttyS0 ->
tts/0
lr-xr-xr-x    1 root     root            5 Aug  2 16:57 /dev/ttyS3 ->
tts/3


and if I run
$ setserial /dev/ttyS3
/dev/ttyS3, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x02e8, IRQ: 3
$ setserial /dev/ttyS0
/dev/ttyS0, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4

they appear to be there.

However I get nothing back.
$ directv.pl box_type D10-200 port /dev/ttyS0 6
Error excessive retries
$ directv.pl box_type D10-100 port /dev/ttyS0 6
Error excessive retries

also grabbed satcannel v2 and tried it as well as directv.pl in my
mythsetup and it does not work.

Anyone have any ideas what steps I need to take to get this working?

Thanks,
