slink minicom sez: "already online; pls hangup"
I upgraded my HP Omnibook 800 from hamm to slink a few weeks ago, and
since then have been unable to use the version of minicom that's part
of that dist. When I attempt to dial, it puts up an alert telling me
"You're already online; please hangup" -- or words to that effect.
When I moved my desktop from hamm to slink a few months ago I had no
problems.
1.82 is the version of minicom that came with my slink. When I grepped
the sources for the alert string (and several small parts of it) I couldn't
find it.
Finally, I went back to the hamm source disks and got the sources for
minicom 1.75. The strings weren't there either -- but when I built that
version of minicom it worked just fine.
I'm using a pcmcia modem, but am not sure that it's the problem, as ppp
still works fine over it.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
