Re: /dev/cua1 not there! -- so can't use modem

1997-07-07 Thread Alex Yukhimets 
 
 I have recently installed Debian 1.3 on a friend's laptop for him.  He
 is complaining that /dev/cua1 doesn't exist.  Nor, apparently, do the
 other cua files.  

Instead of /dev/cua? use corresponding /dev/ttyS?

Good luck.

Alex Y.

 
 I did some reading and the impression I get is that the cu* files are
 now obsolete.  If so, what are they replaced by?  In particular, what
 device should my friend use for his modem?
 
 Thanks.

Use /dev/ttyS* instead of /dev/cua*
