Re: [Xastir] comport under andlinux
There was no mention of any serial ports there. I thought that might be the case, but it was probably worth checking. Since andlinux is running under Windows, there may be some configuration required to map the ports so that Linux can see them. The andlinux forum is probably the best place to ask. I have never tried Linux emulation under Windows, only the reverse (using Win4Lin or VMWare several years ago), but it sounds interesting.

Re: [Xastir] comport under andlinux
THanks for the suggestion ls /dev/ttys0 -la shows crw-rw-rw- for permissions. So I guess this isn't it.

Re: [Xastir] comport under andlinux
Check permissions. I would set it to 666 / rw-rw-rw- and see. I have had issues where that is a fix. It is a "dangerous" fix because of the permission issues, but it is worth the experiment. 73 from 807, Richard, N6NKO Wes Johnston, AI4PX wrote: Guys, I tried to get xastir to talk to my TNC via ttyS0, and it appears to open the port, but I never see any traffic coming in.

[Xastir] comport under andlinux
Guys, I tried to get xastir to talk to my TNC via ttyS0, and it appears to open the port, but I never see any traffic coming in. So I opened the com1 with a windows app and sure enough there's lots of data streaming in. While the windows app was open (tieing up the comport), I tried once again to have xastir open the port and did seems to have opened it even though it should not have. Is there another name for /dev/ttyS0 under andlinux? What am I missing?
