any one got Vmware to host Mango - the issue I am having is although it finds the /dev/ttyS0 it cannot find the DS9097U

Closing down Mango and running the i-buttone Viewer from Dallas also fails to find the adapter.

If I run it on the host (which is Win XP) then it works ok but finds it as a DS9097E not U

If I divert the Com port mapping to a file within VMware then there is a string of data as Mango or the Viewer trys to negotiate with the adapter

Serverly stuck with this - any gems of wisdom welcome

this works ok but you have to chage the adapter type to {DS9097E} (including the brackets)- for some reason it cannot find the DS90097U (despite that being the type of adapter plugged in) - see [url]http://mango.serotoninsoftware.com/forum/posts/list/408.page[/url]

Downloaded the various Java exapmple scripts from Maxim - speifically FindiButtonsConsole.java which will walk thorough the adapters and then the ports on each adapter.

From lacing this with debug prints I conculded that it only likes the DS9097E device.

VMware Guest:Ubuntu
replicated the above - and could not get it to work at all - the port is detected as a "Serial comminication port" - but it could find my DS9097U - and could not work out that even setting it to DS9097E why it still did no work

Will be migrating the whole thing to a real Mini-itx platform shortly - and hope that the problems do not persist.
