I'm not quite sure if it's the same for Tmotes, but for micaz I use /dev/ttyUSB0 for programming and /dev/ttyUSB1 for communication (on Ubuntu with TinyOS 2.x, though).

$ export MOTECOM=serial@/dev/ttyUSB0:tmote
$ java net.tinyos.tools.Listen
Error on serial@/dev/ttyUSB0:57600: java.io.IOException: Couldn't
configure /dev/ttyUSB0

$ export MOTECOM=serial@/dev/ttyUSB1:tmote
$ java net.tinyos.tools.Listen
Error on serial@/dev/ttyUSB1:57600: java.io.IOException: Invalid port.
Known serial ports:
- /dev/ttyS0
- /dev/ttyS1
- /dev/ttyUSB0

So the ttyUSB0 is the correct port. But, for some reason, java cannot
configure it.
You know of any other kind of tests I can do to the serial port to
diagnose the problem?

Thanks,
Fabrizio

Frabrizio:

did you sorted out the FTDI drivers correctly?
remember there is a serial<->USB interface on the Tmote.
the drivers are probably part of the kernel and the motelist output make me guess you did.

but, besides, the javacomm, in linux uses the RXTX. You might be willing to check:
http://wass.homelinux.net/howtos/Comm_How-To.shtml

I'm not sure if this applies to the Tmote, though.
There is no reference to it in: http://www.moteiv.com/community/Tmote_Linux_install
Maybe somebody else in the list can advise.

we are entertaining the idea of moving to ubuntu, so i might keep an eye on this thread :)

Claro.

    Hi all,
       I'm using Ubuntu 6.06, TinyOS 1.1, Java 1.5.0_06, JavaComm 3.0, GCC
    4.0.3, Tmote tools 2.0.2.

    To install all I followed this guides:
      http://www.chadmetcalf.com/tinyos-1x-on-ubuntu/
       http://www.moteiv.com/community/Tmote_Linux_install

    I can program the tmotes, but I'm having some problems with the
    javacomm
    because trying to test the Oscilloscope application the program
    gives me
    an error and stops.

    $ motelist
    Reference  Device           Description
    ---------- ---------------- ---------------------------------------
    M4A9N70Z   /dev/ttyUSB0     Moteiv tmote sky

    $ export MOTECOM=serial@/dev/ttyUSB0:tmote

    $ java net.tinyos.tools.Listen
    Error on serial@/dev/ttyUSB0:57600: java.io.IOException: Couldn't
    configure /dev/ttyUSB0

    If I try to use some other java applications for testing the serial
    port, such as BlackBox, it seems to work.

    $ export CLASSPATH BlackBox.jar:$CLASSPATH
    $ java BlackBox -p /dev/ttyUSB0
    Opening port /dev/ttyUSB0
    /dev/ttyUSB0: PORT_OWNED [by this application]

    and the GUI opens giving me informations on that port.

    So what's happening with the serial connection with the tmote?
    Can you help me?
