Hi All Sorry for the posting. I have tried for two weeks to find my previous set of Minicom notes but.
Anyway hopefully some nice person will help. I have this computer connected to another computer by null modem cable. This is not the first time for this so I know that the other computer is working correctly but on this box I reinstalled the system after a major screw up. Apparently that was when I lost my minicom notes. Anyways I have two serial port possibilities /dev/ttyS0 and /dev/ttyS1. If memory serves me correctly I used ttyS0 previously but either way I have tried both. The problem is that minicom does not see the serial port and I never establish a connection. Again if I recall correctly I had to issue a command from the terminal to initiate so that minicom would see the serial port but I can not recall the command. Damn I wish I had my notes back. Anyway hopefully some one will know what I am talking about and can help.
