Hi, I've tested with the module without hal-daemon. Here though, its completely dead. We need to figure out exactly what's going on here. Is their any way to get some debugging information? If we had this, I could probably look into this further. I believe what is happening here is related to serial port initialization, however we won't know untill we get some debugging information. --Erik On Fri, 26 Sep 2008, William F.
