You can use screen,, minicom, or even cat on the serial device. e.g. screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 - Or something like that. However, in this case It probably is better to use puTTY. As all the utilities I mentioned above have issues with line endings, and eventually will stop breaking on a linefeed - correctly.
You'd be best off googling for how to setup puTTY on Linux. Or, only use serial debug from a Windows system. The later is what I do, only use serial debug from a Windows system with puTTY. However, form the sound of it. It seems as though you have not setup permissions for the serial device yet, Typically this would probably be set to owner root:dialout. Where your user would also be a part of the dialout group. Anyway, this is another case where you'd have to google how to properly set this up. As it's not something I do, or ever plan on doing- personally. On Thu, Feb 16, 2017 at 12:53 PM, mzimmers <[email protected]> wrote: > But what do I do for seeing console messages?
