[cw-discuss] How to find comm port 2 under SuSE Linux 10.1?

[Robert Smits]

I've been trying to install unsupported WinGlucofacts 120 so that I can get 
rid of Windows entirely.

It's a program that communicates with my glucometer (it measures blood sugar - 
I'm a diabetic) and downloads the readings to my computer for analysis ether 
by me or my physician. 

By installing it in a bottle that already had MS Office, I was able to get the 
installer to work. It installed the program, and I can run it.

However, it communicates with my computer on Comm port 2, which doesn't show 
up anywhere in the options panel. 

In fact, when I look in my hardware descriptions in Yast (running SuSE 10.1) I 
can't find any indication SuSe even knows I have a comm port.

Suggestions?
