Then you should be able to do the same with minicom, note the serial
parameters from 'procom' for instance 8N1 i think is normal, and note on
which comm port it is found.
Start linux make sure the commport is free, and start minicom with
'minicom -s'
Now with the information gained from 'procom' setup minicom with the same
parameters.
Just one more thing make sure you have a symlink in /dev called modem
pointing to the correct ttyS#.
For example com 1 = ttyS0
cd /dev
ls -al modem
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Mar 2 01:35 modem -> /dev/ttyS1
If its not there do;
ln -s ttyS0 modem
To be honest i dont know if you need that symlink for a TNC/minicom it
could lead to problems if you have a modem and a PPP link.
