Subject: Serial Port Monitoring Tool

Dear All,

We have gone through following link about the serial monitoring tool.
http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Serial-HOWTO-11.html#serial_mon

However, we know about the USBMON which is used to monitor the USB
traffic on the USB bus. Like USBMON, which is the best one? Is there
any other tool, apart from the above link, for monitoring the serial
data?\

Thanks in advance.

You might find the below softwares useful

   1:  Look RS 232
   2: Windmill

Both of them are available for windows

Regards,
Madhavi M.

anyone using sysfsutils in a practical way?

2011-05-06 Thread Robert P. J. Day

  as i'm reviewing the courseware i'll be teaching in a couple weeks,
i'm making notes as to what should go, what should stay and what
should be added to bring it entirely up to date.

  i'm going to de-emphasize proc files, other than to show some
examples in the fs/proc/ directory if students want to hack up a
couple simple ones for their drivers, knowing that they're not meant
to be permanent.

  and i want to more emphasize kobjects and sysfs.  to that end, i'm
aware of the sysfsutils package, although i haven't used it yet.  is
anyone familiar with it, to the point they're *using* it for useful
things, as opposed to just playing with it?  i'll probably get around
to checking it out this weekend, just curious as to how i'd promote
its use if/when the time comes.  thanks.

Possibly off-topic but Alessandro Rubini has uploaded a set of small sample
drivers (among other things) at:

http://gnudd.com/workdoc.shtml

Maybe there is something of interest in there for your course?

Thanks

 It's obsolete, and doesn't work on modern kernels, please never use it.

 Use libudev instead if you want access to sysfs data for devices.

  ok, good to know, thanks.
