... the r-pi actually has an RS232 port exposed via GPIO. It's only 3.3v but it's there. Someone just needs to write up an SIO driver for it and then put the GPIO pins in question into RS232 "mode". Yay multi-function GPIO pins! adrian On 14 May 2013 08:58, Tom Everett <tom@khubla.com> wrote: > Good morning ARM mailing list. > > I've been running FreeBSD on my Pi, and I've now got two XBee Pros which I > hope to connect.
