I am a relative new user with Ubuntu 13.10 and I have always been puzzled in trying to identify Com ports. On Windows systems it is an easy task but I have not mastered it on Ubuntu.

I have 3 USB to serial devices plugged into my computer and I need to know specifics about them and how to changed their parameters. My Ham radio software CRQLOG needs this information.

Thanks Richard, KC8RP

In linux communication ports are files.

If you use USB to serial adapters, the first one will be /dev/ttyUSB0 the second one /dev/ttyUSB1 etc.

You can see them by looking in /dev
