Com Port not working...

Post by dabest_1977 » 2018/01/25 03:13:17

Hi,

I installed a CentOS v6.9 community enterprise in one Lenovo M700 tiny PC. But the com port is not working. Is there a work around to troubleshoot/resolve this issue?

Thanks,

Dabest

Well, how does it not work? Do you get some sort of an error when you try to use it, perhaps?

More information would certainly be helpful - how are you trying to use the port, how is it failing? However, a common problem is if the user is not a member of the dialout group.

Code: Select all

usermod -a -G dialout <username>
