Hello all,
I have just done modprobe g_serial
and then
on Beagleboard
echo “nidhi” > /dev/ttyGS0 – it works
then
cat /dev/ttyGS0
but as i type something on Hyperterminal …same error comes …on Beagleboard .

as i am able to send data from BB to hyperterminal windows machine …but not able to send it other way …

is there some problem related to usb host or device ?

please guide …has someone tried g_serial on Beagleboard successfully ?

Thanks
Nidhi
