USB Serial help.

hunternet93:
I have purchased a Sansa E200v1 (which hasn't arrived yet), and was wondering how I could set up USB Serial with my Linux computer. I have mincom installed and I know how to use it, but have no idea how to do anything on the Rockbox side. Thanks in advance!  :o

mcuelenaere:
There's a wiki page about this.

Hmm... I was hoping for a serial shell or something... Is there USB network support (like the ethernet gadget linux module) or USB host support? (I'm not experienced at all in C or such... I'm just a Python programmer, keep it simple ;) )

Rockbox doesn't have a shell or network stack, so no.

Not yet, though someday we'd like to get it.

So you picked one of the most complicated possible things to work on?

I think it might help if people here understoof *why* you want this - what are hoping to acheive with it ?
