Parallel to serial adapter
Hey,
I have a parallel to serial adapter, however I cant get it to work. Will these work in linux at all? A google search returned nothing helpfull. Any ideas? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, -Traber |
Depends on which end your using and what is hooked up to it... Linux does not know. Just address the port the addapter is plugged into:
for serial port #1: /dev/ttyS0 for Parallel port #1 /dev/lp0 KC |
Ive tried pointing to the lp0 device, and it doesnt work. The adapter plugs into my parallel port on my laptop(dont know why it doesnt have a serial port) and then my palm is plugged into that. I try pointing the jpilot at /dev/fd0 but it just sits there forever. I read something about setserial, and I tried that, but it says it cannot get serial info. Ive also tried to access it with ckermit, that doesnt work either. Thanks for the quick reply.

Oh yeah, in ckermit when I set the line the /dev/lp0 it says "/dev/lp0 is not a terminal device. Sorry cant open connection: /dev/lp0
