For example: To program the serial port with Cygwin the devicename for Windows must be /dev/com1 and on Linux /dev/ttyS0. So I want to know which names the other devices should have for example the keybord? Is there a document where I can read this or doesn't this make any sense? Can I also try the Linux conventions?
