No matter what I do she seems to insist on 7E1. The modem is definitely letting through 8 bits. I tried all the combinations of op, ap etc. in /etc/gettytab but no joy. If I log in from afar using 7E1 she's happy. After poring over the FAQ and BUGlist from Berkeley I finally came here in desperation. Any pointers gratefully received.
