Subject: partial success with com ports
Date: Thu, 21 Mar 2002 10:49:47 -0600 (CST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.44.0203211045550.284-100000@maranatha.chartermi.net> (raw)

Ok, I finally decided to see if root could do this. this meant I had to do it
without brltty, because if I enter dosemu as root brltty immediately stops on
me, though it resumes as soon as I exit dosemu. So, without using brltty on
boot, I entered dosemu as root and was able to access the com ports.
My question now is:  How do I fix my serial permissions so that i can do this as
a user. Presently my TTYSx are assigned to root and dialout, of which I am a
membert. However, I have used chmod to put the permissions at 666 and even 1777
and that doesn't apparently give me access within dosemu. What do I need to
change here?
By the way, my versBraille doesn't appear to like dosemu--let out a long tone
until I reset it. However, pcdisk works beautifully!!!
TIA.
