How to access serial port from Java on the Zaurus?

Surely someone has done this before. I need to communicate from java to/from the Z's serial port.

========= installation ==============
I've installed http://s88074083.onlinehome.us/Zaurus/java...api_1.0_arm.ipk

This resulted in the following files in /home/QtPalmtop
java/comm.jar
java/jcl.jar
lib/libSerial.so
javax.comm.properties

Note that my LD_LIBRARY_PATH environmental variable is set to
/home/QtPalmtop/lib

I expect the calling sequence to be
SerialDemo --> comm.jar --> jcl.jar --> libSerial.so --> /dev/ttyS0

I manually performed the following configuration:

1) added user zaurus to the uucp line in /etc/group
2) chmod 777 /dev/ttyS0
3) chmod 777 /var

I got a font error and resolved it by adding this symbolic link:
mkdir -p /usr/local/qt-embedded/lib
cd /usr/local/qt-embedded/lib
ln -s /home/QtPalmtop/lib/fonts fonts

I built this demo
http://s88074083.onlinehome.us/Zaurus/java...-SerialDemo.zip

========== evm problems ============
With evm, I still get errors:

x=/home/QtPalmtop/java
evm -Dcomm.enable -cp .:$x/comm.jar:$x/jcl.jar SerialDemo
14 1082109100



RXTX WARNING: This library requires the user running applications to be in
group uucp. Please consult the INSTALL documentation. More information is
avaiable under the topic 'How can I use Lock Files with rxtx?'
check_lock_status: No permission to create lock file.


======= cvm problems ==========
With cvm, the application loads but I don't see any com ports:

cvm -Dcomm.enable -Djava.class.path=.:$x/comm.jar:$x/jcl.jar SerialDemo

========== Source code explorations =============
In the SerialDemo.java, search for

Enumeration en = CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifiers();

This appears to be returning an empty enumeration.

Note that I can rename the libSerial.so to a dummy name and the application DOES NOT complain. So, I don't think something is configured correctly.

If anyone knows what I'm doing wrong, please let me know!

Thanks in advance, Jeff

Problem running evm and cvm on 5500 with 3.10 roms

I've recently upgraded my 5500 Z's rom to 3.10 and installed Jeode evm and Sun's cvm.

Whenever I run either program from the embeddedkonsole or a telnet session, I get the following error messages:

$ type evm
evm is hashed (/home/QtPalmtop/bin/evm)

$ evm -version
QSocket::writeBlock: Socket is not open
QSocket::writeBlock: Socket is not open
QSocket::writeBlock: Socket is not open

If you want to run this program as a server,
add the "-qws" command-line option.

$ type cvm

$ cvm -version

----------------------------------------------------------------------
On the old rom, I only had this problem when running from a telnet session. I got around it by adding this to my .profile:
export LOGNAME=unknown

This LOGNAME trick doesn't appear to work anymore. What should I try next?

I'm wondering if I need to install or enable the Qt/Embedded server for the new rom? How would I check? Here is a process dump:
