DriveWire Server 4 under Linux...

I would like use the USB DriveWire under Linux.

I see it:

Code: Select all

~ $ sudo lsusb | grep UART
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 10c4:ea60 Cygnal Integrated Products, Inc. CP210x UART Bridge / myAVR mySmartUSB light

$ dmesg | grep -ie cp210*
[17479.466698] usb 1-1: Product: CP2102 USB to UART Bridge Controller
[17479.548508] usbcore: registered new interface driver cp210x
[17479.548520] usbserial: USB Serial support registered for cp210x
[17479.548535] cp210x 1-1:1.0: cp210x converter detected
[17480.428168] usb 1-1: cp210x converter now attached to ttyUSB0
So it's assigned to /dev/ttyUSB0

But the DriveWire 4 java app didn't found a serial port. I have tried to use Add port manually and use /dev/ttyUSB0 as the name. But without success...

How to setup?

Great wiki work! I think I always add myself to the dialout group so I never think about this. Using my serial ports for so many things...
