Ok. Lawson mentioned that a couple days ago, sorry. I'm in Minicom and I type
AT and nothing happens. But I'm still not convinced minicom is working
correctly.
How do I know if minicom is working correctly. This may be a stupid question.
But I am migrating from Windows. I spent an hour today helping my girlfriend
troubleshoot a problem on her HP w/ Windows 98. I've heard of no less than 5
problems with windows every week this year (+- a few). So I am used to things
not working correctly. From what I can gather that isn't very common in Linux.
Thank god.
