I use minicom with the keyspan USB->Serial adapter on a white iBook, works great. I just have to keep plugging it in to the same USB port each time (I think that it sees each USB port as a separate serial port with the adapter...maybe something with the way the driver works?). Also have to tell setup (config mode of minicom) which port to go to when you first run it with the keyspan...use the keyspan's port utility to help you figure out which device file to point to under /dev. Once you get it set up, minicom works well :-) -Bart -- ********************************************************************** Microsoft: What trolls think lives under their beds... 8:35am up 1 day, 15:52, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 I heard Microsoft improved the time it takes to reboot Windows XP.
