Was able to get serial port monitor working on Ubuntu 22.04.
- remove brltty package, it’s for console braille communications.
sudo apt remove brltty
sudo apt autoclean && sudo apt autoremove
- disable modemmanager package, I used the instructions on this page
https://askubuntu.com/questions/216114/how-can-i-remove-modem-manager-from-boot
Both of these hijack the communications for the usb ports, so you’re unable to see them.
The serial monitor settings are “Newline” and 57600 baud.
Hope this helps.
