I need some hint regarding opening a serial (ttyUSB) port using the unit serial. Minicom works fine under my user id. When i call SerOpen('/dev/ttyUSB0'), fpopen blocks forever. When i first start minicom on that port, SerOpen and all other functions of serial.pp works fine.

ttyUSB0 is:
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 0 Aug 18 09:37 /dev/ttyUSB0

changing it to
crw-rw-rw- 1 root dialout 188, 0 Aug 18 09:38 ttyUSB0

makes no difference. (my user id has the supplemental group "dialout" added) SerOpen will always block if minicom is not started on the same port, the same applies if i try it wit root.

Assuming that you mean the standard serial.pp, that's not something I've seen here /but/ I'm using a 32-bit kernel. I think that the first thing I'd explore is whether you need the incoming control lines (cts, dsr, cd) to be asserted before the function completes, but quite frankly if I'm reading your

correctly then it sounds like a kernel or driver issue.

Anybody: I've modified serial.pp to support Win-32 and fix a couple of issues. Bug http://62.166.198.202/view.php?id=18946
