[PD] rfcomm and comport device list

[gordo]

hi all,

i´m running pd 0.39-1 on 2.6.17-gentoo-r8 and reading data from an
incoming bluetooth device via bluez´s rfcomm.

after connecting:

# rfcomm connect 1
Connected /dev/rfcomm1 to 10:00:E8:52:32:CE on channel 1

i can do:

# cat /dev/rfcomm1

which cats all my incoming data correctly, but if i´m printing
device-list with comport-object, it pathetically outputs:
[comport]: available serial ports:
0 /dev/ttyS0

thanks for any advice/hint
/g


btw. stupid newbie question: how can i access /dev/tty without starting
pd as root?
