You can probably access the underlying Linux device, which is typically something like "/dev/ttyS0", although USB serial devices sometimes have their own naming conventions. I'm having another moment of senility, but I think it's "/dev/ttyUSB0", for example.
The secret of how to be miserable is to constantly expect things are going to happen the way that they are "supposed" to happen.
You can have faith, which carries the understanding that you may be disappointed. Then there's being a willfully-blind idiot, which virtually guarantees it.
