Raspberry Pi Arduino Serial with Python

I'm aware of this being the same question as in this thread. However, I tried the named solutions (yes, all of them [I think]) and it still gives the same error message.

I tried to establish a serial connection between my Raspberry and Arduino (Mega 2560). After installing the serial package (pip install serial, sudo apt-get install python-serial), my script file being called "arduino.py", the code being:

import serial

MySer = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyUSB0', 9600)

I still get the same error message (AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'Serial').

Now did I do something inherently wrong? Do I have to set some permissions or... I'm a little lost here. ^^

Thanks in advance,

Tim

Thanks dda - that was the right direction.

I uninstalled serial and installed pyserial, now it works phenomenally (at least from what I gather in the few minutes between coffee and work).

Thank you so much!

Best of wishes,

Tim
