          sorry but its very unreadable.
          I have no idea what
          ,problem is i would like to use “char ch50,buf; i.e ch = buf;

          means.
          I can only give you some hints:

          why you only read 1 char ?
          nreturn = read(fd,&buf,1)

          read returns how many you get so:
          @
          char buf[2048];// now a list of char
          nreturn = read(fd,&buf,2048)

          then you can look in buf[0], buf[1]
          if nreturn is 2
          @

            2 shirisha ,

            why you just do not use QtSerialPort?

                Did you read Wiki? What version of Qt do you use?

                Please paste more informative messages, how you tried?

                    Please answer the questions we are asking you in order for us to help you.

                    Again, it seems that you are not using QSerialPort, if so, then go to the appropriate forum like I already suggested.

                    Otherwise, tell us exactly what version of Qt you are using. Show us the code where you initialize QSerialPort. Tell us what parameter your serial port should use.

                            QSerialPort works on all support platform so what is your exact problem with linux ?

                            Most probably you don't have the rights to access the serial port, do you ?

                              "This thread":http://qt-project.org/forums/viewthread/44793/ will guide you through my experiences when I added it to 4.6.3.
                              If you follow all the posts, you should be able to successfully add QtSerialPort to 4.8.4 .. even easier because you may not need all the changes that were needed for 4.6.3.

                                  n+=ch.unicode();

                                  s = QString::number(n,16);

                                  }
                                  qDebug () << "Data:" << s;

                                  }

                                  Am able to display hex value, when data is only one byte and other problem is when continusly data is read only first byte is getting correct remaing am geting addition of the previous data . if i read 5 bytes of data am getting junk data .Please help me

                                    use this

                                    @QString a="a";
                                    QByteArray BA1=a.toUtf8();
                                    QByteArray BA2=BA1.toHex();
                                    const char* chArr1=BA2.constData();
                                    qDebug()<<QString::fromUtf8(chArr1);@

                                      Is your fd the serialport?
                                      Again, as asked before, why are you not using QSerialPort?
                                      What is your target, the task you need to get done?

                                        Basic serial port usage as I have worked on is

                                        @ serial=new QSerialPort(this);

                                        serial->setPortName("/dev/ttyS0");
                                        serial->setBaudRate(9600);
                                        serial->setDataBits(QSerialPort::Data8);
                                        serial->setParity(QSerialPort::NoParity);
                                        serial->setFlowControl(QSerialPort::NoFlowControl);
                                        
                                        
                                        serial->open(QIODevice::ReadWrite);
                                        
                                        serial->write("Hello World");
                                        
                                        connect(serial,SIGNAL(readyRead()),this,SLOT(readSerialData()));@

                                          .. and the readSerialData() ... (pseudo code)
                                          @
                                          void QTGUI_MainWindow::readSerialData()
                                          {
                                          while((iBytesAvailable = serial->bytesAvailable()))
                                          {
                                          QByteArray RawPortData = serial->read(iBytesAvailable);
                                          ...

                                          @
