I am running VirtualBox under linux. Gues OS is Windows XP.
I have an IR transmitter connected to serial port, (yes the old kind DE-9), on my box and added the following in VirtualBox "Serial Ports":
[v] Enable Serial Port
Port Number: COM1 IRQ: 4 I/O Port: 0x3F8
Port Mode: Host Device
Port/File_PAth: /dev/ttyS0
Added user to group for serial.
Now: I am using sniffer on host; ie jpnevulator
jpnevulator --ascii --timing-print --tty /dev/ttyS0 --read
Run Guest OS and start IR software and write data by IR (In guest OS/WinXP).
The data is written, but nothing comes up in jpnevulator
.
What am I missing here?
