It uses serial ports and under linux I can ls -l /dev/tty* If I do this under cygwin I get nothing. If I do ls -l /dev I only get a few device. However if I do ls -l /dev/ttyS0 or ls -l /dev/com1 then I get what I would expect. I have searched cygwin FAQ etc and this forum but didn't find anything. Anybody any ideas what I have to do? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/why-cannot-I-see-serial-devices-using-ls-tp29779076p29779076.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
