wow... Gentlemen, you bring to light a few theories I've been mucking around with. The epson ADK 1.11 and it's install directions are.....shaky at best. The README and INSTALLATION files that come with the install don't reflect that of the PDF you can get off the site.
Also The RXTX install instructions are outdated as it's Revision 2 and some of the errors and directories they have you mess with turn in to witch hunts! I'll look into this and give what you suggest a try. Just out of curiousity.....How does one add files to the classpath in ubuntu? You're not speaking of just adding them to $PATH? correct? The sys admin stuff is easy, it's this new JAVA craziness thats throwing me off! :P P.S. I had been messing with the $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext directory! YIKES! I'll get it fixed!
