        The Tracker 3 comes with a USB port - so no adapter is

Which means your USB -> Serial adapter is built onto the TNC board and you may 
have the same sorts of problems I did:  USB stops communicating sometimes to the 
Linux box.  USB port moving from USB0 to USB1 or back again.


        It would be cool if that "init KISS mode at startup"
switch would - when Xastir is first opened - cause a script to
execute and run Minicom then set "USBKISS on" and exit then
open Xastir.

There's no reason you can't create a script to do that yourself, which then 
runs Xastir:


---
  #!/bin/bash

  minicom blah blah options blah blah

  xastir &
---


Also take a look at the "kiss-off.pl" script in xastir/scripts/ directory...  
You may be able to do something similar and code that into your Xastir startup script, 
avoiding use of Minicom to set things up.  Does the TNC come out of KISS mode when you 
reset it?  I'm trying to figure out whey you'd constantly need to put it into KISS mode.  
If possible, just put it in that mode and forget about it.
