Probably I should have given the init_serial() as well; So here it is:
(it is basically the one from the serial-programming-howto)
int init_serial(tcflag_t baud)
{
struct termios tio;
tcgetattr(serialfd,&tio);
tio.c_cflag = baud | CLOCAL;
tio.c_iflag = IGNPAR;
tio.c_oflag = 0;
tio.c_lflag = 0;
tio.c_cc[VTIME] = 0;
tio.c_cc[VMIN] = 1;
tcflush(serialfd, TCIFLUSH);
tcsetattr(serialfd,TCSANOW,&tio);
return 0;
}
Thank you for any help
