Is /dev/ttyUSB0 as functional as a regular /etc/ttyS0? I have a USB to serial adapter that uses the pl2303 driver, and have
[EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ~/.wine/dosdevices $ ls -l total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 adam users 12 May 9 04:08 com1 -> /dev/ttyUSB0 But it doesnt appear to work. Similarly mapping ttyUSB0 to com1 in vmware fails, but if i connect the usb adapter to a vmware windows guest and add the windows driver it works. So; - should it work? - will other USB to serial adapter with better linux drivers work? - or will i have to try a PCCard serial adapter?
