Re: Help: serial port/minicom



Thanks for the reply,
Unfortunately, that didn't work
("auto" was in /etc/modules, and I commented it out).
Do you know if statserial would fail if the serial device wasn't happy?
(if so, how?) I'm trying to isolate where the brokenness is, and statserial
seems to indicate that the serial port is fine. (When I start minicom with
statserial running, the status flags toggle as if the machine were properly
sending bits to the device). On the other hand, I know the device itself
isn't the problem, since things work under redhat ...
Could minicom be doing something wrong?
Is there a simple way to check?
tia,
