I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Tue Mar 14 23:21:59 2006 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports. BlackBox tells me that it can not find any. I downloaded 2.1 pre17i placed the dlls in the bin directory and the jar in the lib directory and linked them to the class path with netbeans. I have a working copy on a linux partition using but under linux i recompiled the code and let it set everything up. Is there anything else that i need to do to get the windows version to work? thank you, -hammackj -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I have a high-speed USB serial adapter from Keyspan. I installed RXTX_Jag.pkg from the following source snapshot: ftp://ftp.qbang.org/pub/rxtx/rxtx-2.1-CVS-20050120.tar.gz I messed with "uucp" group stuff until I got past a "PortInUseException." Now I get a nice jvm crash (see attached dump). Unfortunately, I'm not very useful for debugging it. I tried re-building from the source, but to no avail. Of course, Trent may remember my OneWireViewer application. Since the above snapshot seems to contain binaries for rxtx-2.1-7pre17, and I think my Windows/Linux problems disappeared after >pre19, I'm assuming I just need >pre19 binaries for Mac OSX. Thanks in advance for any help.

The problem is that with this command is downloaded from the repository the version 2.1 of RXTX. Have I been missing something?

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root@creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Tue Mar 28 18:25:23 2006 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

Getting Dal Semi working would be great for tinkering on Mac OS X. I'm always interested in the hobby interests.

The problem is that with this command is downloaded from the repository the version 2.1 of RXTX. Have I been missing something?

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root@creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Tue Mar 28 20:17:19 2006 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

Getting Dal Semi working would be great for tinkering on Mac OS X. I'm always interested in the hobby interests. I plan on buying a Mac OS X from Walmart and selling it on ebay (or the reverse? joke) to get rxtx working for a company. I honestly dont know right now. I will be more than willing to look at the problem before I sell of the box though. The other guy here thats _really_ good at Mac OS X is Dmitry Markman.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root@creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy.

I will require also the sources in order to compile them for an specific platform. I have tried to checkout from cvs repository the version 1.5 of RXTX, using the following sequence of commands: 1. export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous at cvs.milestonesolutions.com:/usr/local/cvsroot 2. cvs login 3. cvs checkout -r commapi-0-0-1 rxtx-devel as indicated in the site. The problem is that with this command is downloaded from the repository the version 2.1 of RXTX. Have I been missing something?

I found that the INSTALL documentation seems to be in error. It states that javacomm20-x86.tar.Z (the Java Communications API for Solaris/x86) must be used, in fact this choice led to the following test with the BlackBox sample program in the commapi: root at creature:~/commapi/samples/BlackBox# java -classpath .:$CLASSPARG BlackBox -p /dev/ttyS0 Port /dev/ttyS0 not found! No serial ports found! Moreover, the installation of comm.jar in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext cause Eclipse 3.0.1 to exit due to a fatal error; it was necessary to upgrade to the Eclipse stable build version 3.1M7 to avoid this. However, I found that using the Solaris/Sparc version of commapi worked on my system.

I do agree, that updating fink can sometimes get a bit hairy. I guess I have to refer you to the fink F.A.Q. page.. :( sometime, another selfupdate helps. or removing packages (if there are conflicting ones that fink doesn't handle properly) If this doesn't help, you should complain/ask on fink-devel mailing list. sorry, Matthias From hammackj at gmail.com Mon May 23 12:49:58 2005 From: hammackj at gmail.com (Jacob hammack) Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 13:49:58 -0500 Subject: [Rxtx] Setup under win2k Message-ID: <22066a4b05052311497e75e2d3@mail.gmail.com> I am trying to setup rxtx under win2k, it seems to run but it does not find any of my comm ports.
