Hi to All!!!  
I am VERY new to RebornOS and I need some help to activate the serial port.  
I have installed setserial with yay -S setserial, and activated it  
with sudo setserial -g /dev/ttyS0, but when I insert my name in appropriate group with  
sudo usermod -a -G dialout I discovered it is not every dialog user.  
I need also to install the RebornOS version of:

python3-setserial  
pytyhon3-pyqt5.qtsetserialport  
libqt5serialport5-dev  
python-serial  
python3-serial

These names are from my previous destro Kubuntu 22.04 LTS.  
All help is VERY aprreciated!!!  
With best regards.  
Pheryllt

Hi and welcome to RebornOS

I found the following packages corresponding to your package list they can be installed with  
sudo pacman -S python-pyserial qt5-serialport

Can you explain what you mean by every dialog user?

Hi, Thank you very much for help!  
I am sorry. I mean that the dialog group is not present!

Hi, I have been already installed these libraries:

libserialport  
qt5-serialport  
qt6-serialport  
python-pyserial  
linuxconsole

that is all I found in RebornOS repositories, but I need also the libs listed in my first post.  
All these libs are necessary to connect the pyilper software installed with Anaconda3 python.

Hi @Pheryllt ,

Does the Anaconda distribution system automatically handle all the dependencies?
