Hi;

I am working on a Java interface util for a wireless sensor system. The system
has a hardware interface that allows the user to control the system via a comm
port (RS-232).

I am using the RXTX/Java Comm API combo which seems to be working to a point.
The system seems to be aware that comm ports exist but when I make a call to
open the comm port of interest the system returns indicating that the port is
in use.

I don't think I need to go into detail on the Java Comm API for what I am
looking for. I need to make sure that ManDrake using the ttyS? devices in /dev.
I set these help with read/write permissions for everyone (chmod 777 ttyS?). Are
these the correct devices mapped to the comm ports? If not, what does ManDrake
use?

Thanks for the help.
