Hello all,
I wrote a program to control a hobby milling machine.(Profiler, see
Elektor-forum). The programm is written in fpc-pascal and using
synaser in the windows version for control of the serial port(s). Now
I want to use the program in Debian 8... and or Ubuntu 15... Compiling
and running the present version gives "no permission" for the
serial/usb ports. Please advise how to get the program running with
these ports. (lazarus 1.2.4 fpc 2.6.4).
For Debian you usually have to be part of the "dialout" group to have
access to the serial ports.
Same for Slackware and possibly others. Always catches me out, despite
doing quite a lot of this sort of stuff.
