I found the problem. Kernel upgrades did not help as mentioned above.
It appears that during the upgrade of the setserial package, I said yes
to the installation of a new /etc/rc.boot/0setserial.
That seems to break serial port access. When I put back the old
0setserial, and rebooted, minicom worked fine. Inspecting the two
scripts, the old and new, I see enough differences. I will try to
understand this and turn in a bug report if warranted. Has anyone else
had a problem with the 0setserial bootup script in setserial-2.14-3 ?

Gopal.

Thanks again for any help!! What now - another kernel upgrade - 
maybe to 2.1.xx?

minicom crashes after upgrade

1999-04-26 Thread Gopal Narayanan
I upgraded one of our machines to slink from hamm. The upgrade went
well. But after the upgrade I keep getting segmentation violations when
I run minicom. We use minicom to talk to another local machine through
the serial port. It was working fine before the upgrade. I am running
kernal 2.0.34. 

When I start up minicom, it is fine until I give it one keystroke, upon
which it segfaults. Any help will be much appreciated. Will a kernel
upgrade be helpful. If so what kernel should I upgrade to?

Here is the relevant kernel messages cut and pasted from dmesg:

Thank You. That was the trick. Commenting out the asyncmap 0 option
worked. I should have realized something was amiss earlier. I am using
a digital TAU modem on the server side. It must need some characters to
be escaped. I will now try determining which.
