Hi,
Minicom 1.4b comms package built out of the box on FreeBSD. I have one
interesting problem though, if I use the sio drivers, then I cannot
access the modem. The DTR light comes on but the is all. If I use the
older com drivers, then the package works well. It actually works better
then it did under linux. :-)
So, can anyone comment on having any problems with the sio drivers with
some programs? This is the first small problem I have had with the sio
drivers. Are there any additional settings I must use?
Try
stty -f /dev/tty00 clocal
The difference is that the FreeBSD default is to look for carrier !
Brian.
