I received a reply to an email from the maintainers of the linuxcomm and rxtx
packages about this issue. There is a java file in the rxtx src directory
called RXTXCommDriver.java that you will need to modify. Look in the
initialize() method or grep for "tty" and you should see fairly quickly what
needs to be modified in order for your ttyD? devices to be recognized.
This is for 1.3-6 of rxtx, but should be the same for 1.3-4.
