<div dir="ltr">Hi guys,<div><br></div><div>After looking at how usb serial devices attach and are treated on linux, windows (not really working at all ;)) and mac, I have an idea that *could* cater for both modems and non modem cdc devices (disregarding mal formed USB descriptors, etc.):</div>
<div><br></div><div>We could let any CDC device mount as the /dev/ttyACMx (or /ttyCDCx) *and* have a /dev/ttyMODEMx device created at the same time that the modemmanager can have full control over - but at a lower priority than /dev/ttyCDCx - so that any attempt to connect with ttyCDCx would cut off ttyMODEMx while noting is communicating directly with ttyMODEMx </div>
<div><br></div><div>One could consider different variants of this approach - and even look at how apple does it, where 2 devices seem to appear (one for modem and one for data connection that we use) when we plug in our usb serial device.</div>
<div><br></div><div>(Please be kind if this has been proposed earlier ;))</div><div><br></div><div>thoughts?</div><div><br></div><div>br</div><div>Lars</div></div>
