I have set permissions to all for both Com1 & 2, and even logged off and
on again. No luck. How do you list the serial ports Com1 & 2 in
Linux? I have tried what I think is everything on port settings in "add
camera". I keep getting the message of "can't initialize camera, check
your port settings".
