i was just wondering if somebody could give me any pointers about how to use USB ports on Ubuntu(and other unix systems) &&/|| (and/or :]) windows. I was trying to googling some stuff up but i failed horribly. Even names of libraries to be used etc would be appriciated.
Thanks, Tomas Herman
You can use libusb for direct access to USB. http://www.libusb.org/
If you instead wish to use a USB serial port or other device for which the OS already has drivers, look for other means. E.g. /dev/input/event* or /dev/ttyUSB* devices on Linux.
