... well, Nick actually, he's the bloke writing Java across the desk from me. Apparently there's this function in librxtx called CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifiers, he uses it to find what serial ports are available. I'm told it works on Windows, but when his product is run in a Linux environment it only reports /dev/ttyUSBn where n = 0,1,2,3. There are definitely others which you can see if you ls -l /dev/tty* (includes /dev/ttymxc4, /dev/ttymxc5). The existence of these others is crucial as the latter are the RS485 ports which he needs to tell me about so that my end of the software can use them. Does anyone know how getPortIdentifiers works, or what documentation might exist which would help us in getting this function to recognise those other ports?
