My serial port is indeed a "real" serial port. However, on the odd chance that my it might be "faked" on my motherboard like some laptops do, I tried ttyUSB0, no luck.... that locked up andLinux which finally shut itself down after 5 minutes.
I installed minicom and set it up for correct baud rate and port. Tried with ttyS0, acts the same as xastir. Seems to open the port but nothing sent received. I think I'm going to carry this over to the andlinux forum b/c this doesn't seem xastir related.
