Failed to open COM1

Thu Aug 19 12:59:00 GMT 2004

I have been using an older cygwin and recently updated to the latest.
COM1 appears to no longer be available. I enter:

export AVARICE_ARGS='-j COM1'
ice-insight build/micaz/main.exe

And I get the following:

AVaRICE version 2.0.20030825cvs, Aug 25 2003 20:53:25

Failed to open COM1: No such file or directory

If I change the export to:
export AVARICE_ARGS='-j /dev/ttyS0'

it works - except that there is a dropdown box in ice-insight that asks
for either COM1 or COM4 and if I select COM1 it says there is no such
thing.

I looked through the documentation and it mentions the com ports and
says that by default it provides COM1; it does not appear to any longer.

I also searched the archives and can do an:
ls -al /dev/com1 
crw-rw-rw- 1 reinhlr2 mkgroup- 117, 1 Aug 18 14:54 /dev/com1

ideas?
