windows subsystem for linux – Serial port to COM port – no output found
In WSL 1, COM4 should be automatically mapped to /dev/ttyS4
as far as I know. Since WSL 1 is just an API wrapper on top of the Windows kernel (like an inverse of Wine) there might not be any messages about it in dmesg
.
So, try ls -l /dev/ttyS*
, or setserial -g /dev/ttyS*
. Note that the device name is case sensitive, so the S
must be upper case.
On the other hand, WSL 2 apparently won’t support regular serial ports at all, but up-to-date versions of it can support USB-serial converters.
