Re^6: r/w attached infrared head on /dev/ttyUSB0

I tried now a complete other raspberry with an older installation of raspbian.
It is exactly the same situation.

So I can be sure, there are no other running processes or something other what kills my script.

I now it can be working.
Some years ago I had this thing working, but after some years the SD card was crashed.
And I have a backup - problem is, I don't know where...
What I remember, I had the same problems but I made it working.

Sorry I can't be of more assistance, other than all the debugging tips and trying to find the difference between `cat`+`stty` and Perl, I'm still out of ideas at the moment. It could possibly be related to whatever kernel driver or USB module this is - in the node I linked to, I mentioned that I discovered that I needed to set `-echo` for some of the adapters I was working with (specifically, an FTDI USB-COM485-PLUS4 module with a FT4232H chip). Unfortunately, the way I discovered this was with lots of experimenting and banging my head against the wall. I recall using `cat`+`stty`, minicom, and screen to talk to the virtual port until I figured out the issue with the `-echo` option. I can only suspect that the issue with the module you're working with might be similar, some combination of options needed to make it work. Good luck, and let us know if you have more questions or you do figure it out `:-)`	[reply] [d/l] [select]
