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.

I installed minicom and set it up for correct baud rate and

nothing

I think I'm going to carry this over to the andlinux forum b/c this
doesn't
seem xastir related.

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.

It is a "dangerous" fix because of the permission issues, but

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

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?
I
see ttys0 in the /dev directory.
