/dev/ttyS0 - COM1 problem

Post by Steen Loebger »

Hello, I'm trying to run my weather station (Davis WMII) on wine 0-9-58
and OpenSuSe 10.3.
After installation of WeatherLink 5.7.1, I try to communicate via COM1
but the program can't find it and even not test with a loop plug in COM1.
I have changed the mode to 0777 for the serial devices in
/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules and rebooted.
/home/sel/.wine/dosdevices reveal that com1 is linked to /dev/ttyS0 with
total permission for all.
Testing ttyS0 with a little test program with the dongle show the serial
port is working.
The same port with same WeatherLink 5.7.1 but booted in Windows 2000 on
the same machine works fine.
Any suggestions ? Thanks.
