The javax.comm libraries don't seem to understand the USB serial ports.
The way to do this is to symlink /dev/ttyUSB0 to /dev/ttyS4 (for
example, you can replace "4" with any other number):
ln -sf /dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/ttyS4
Now the Java tools will think your USB-serial cable is COM5 (because
/dev/ttyS0 is COM1, /dev/ttyS1 is COM2, etc.) So you can use
