It's me, the guy with all the FreeBSD (1.1.5R) problems.

I can't get minicom to talk to my modem. I had it cut me off kermit once. 
That was the only time I could get minicom loaded. Now it won't even 
load. It says something about can't open /dev/tty01. "Sorry."

I really don't mind kermit, I just want something that can use zmodem.

If anyone could help me get minicom working or point me to some other
*non X* comm program.
