Sorry I cannot help. Not may area of expertise, I'm afraid. Sounds like a good question to be posed on the relevant Linux forum. i.e. the forum relating to the version of Linux that you run.
Hello guru’s,
I have a Linus base system with a windows7 in a virtual box.
I am trying to get the windows system to see the serial port on the computer (/dev/ttyS0).
I have done a chmod to make the /dev/ttyS0 accessible to all users (ie me).
In virtual box I have enabled COM1 and piped it to /dev/ttyS0 yet applications do not see the serial port.
I am at a loss what to do next.
Any pointers?
Thanks for looking in.

I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...
Is it a hard wired port or a usb to serial adaptor?

I dunno but i thought thats what ser2pl did ????
Quick google talks about serial to USB. I am wanting to go serials to serial. USB is not require to access.

I can't find it again now but I think I remember when trying similar a few years ago something about having to create or enable the COM port manually from within the guest OS?
That was with XP as the guest I think & from memory I think I gave up trying after a while.
Never really had much luck with VB over the years, never seemed to be able to get it working as it was supposed to.
This might have been what I was thinking of -

why not use something like this:
and run windows live, or even dual boot windows .........

Winradio work using WINE?...though I've found WINE & anything USB never seem to play nice together.
Or perhaps as another option.
What about ditching WINE and trying Virtualbox instead? Presumung you still have a valid Windoze licence, of course.

He's already running Win7 as a guest in VB.
thats ok. just my luck there will be some strange solution like a Serial <> USB in Virtual box into the Linux host system where /dev/ACM0<>/dev/ttyS0!!!!!!!
I might give wine a try at some stage...hopefully when all finished and working will give me a listening station from 100KHz to 4 GHz all modes and digital?????

Sorry, missed the bit about VB. If you can's get it working in VB, I'd give WINE a miss, the Linux forums I inhabit see more problems with WINE than VB.

Hi Porkop, In Virtual Box did you install the guest additions ?
