Since I'm having trouble getting andLinux to speak to a comport, and andLinux talks to the sound card via a network socket, why not install a comport to tcp driver under windows and let xastir talk to that. How can I setup a serial TNC that talks to a telnet port rather than a /dev/ttySx port

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 plac

My serial port is indeed a "real" serial port. However, on the odd chance that my it might be "faked" on my motherboard like some laptops do, I tried ttyUSB0, no luck that locked up andLinux which finally shut itself down after 5 minutes. I installed minicom and set it up for correct baud rat

Ok, that's not it. Is your serial port hardware or a USB dongle? If a dongle, look at /dev/ttyUSB0. If you have minicom, jump pins 2 and 3 on the port and see if you get data back on your port. At least this would see if linux is seeing the port and able to use it. 73 from 807, Richard,

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 T

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
