Serial Library on Ubuntu
Jun 1st, 2007, 12:53am  
Hi All,

I'm running a bluetooth simulated serial port on my ubuntu box, which seems to work (i've checked by using kermit to connect to my sparkfun WiTilt board, and it works fine)

I'm using the same code as i've tested under os x but....

When i try to write to the serial port from processing i get a null pointer exception:

java.lang.NUllPointerExecption
at processing.serial.Serial.write(Serial.java:505)
at processing.serial.Serial.write(Serial.java:528)
at Temporary_573_4213.setup(Temporary_573_4213.java:68)

RXTX is on version 2.1-7
processing is on 0124

Any ideas? Getting desperate!

thanks in advance!
