Hello friends,
                    I would like to send and receive data through the
serial port of beagleboard as a part of my project. I am aiming to
send and receive data wirelessly through a zigbee module.

Is it possible to do so? Please help.

Hi,

I have a sample program I wrote that works on ubuntu and gumstix, and
even on Windows using cygwin. It should work fine on the beagleboard
(or any other linux board for that matter):
http://svn.hylands.org/host/sertest/

It's basically just a really simple terminal emulator. Anything typed
in on stdin is sent to the serial port and anything recieved from the
serial port is sent to stdout.
