Hello,

For me it works pretty well. I can control very well LegoMindstorm. I use a linux kernel 2.5.0 with an adaptor usb->serial (my laptop not have any serial port).

A typically code may be :
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
	port := SerialPort new.
	port baudRate: 2400.
	port dataBits: 8.
	port parityType: 1.
	port stopBitsType: 1.
	port openPort: 0.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Regards,
Alexandre
