Hi,
I have a 68k board connected to com1 via rs232 line on my linux
machine(SuSe 6.1).
I have configured minicom with the rigths settings (baud rate, stop
bits, /dev/ttys0 device...)

When I launch minicom I have the following error:
minicom: cannot open /dev/ttys0: Input/output error

There is no lock file and I really do not know what the problem is...
Any advive will be helpfull...



Thanx,

Martin.

hi

I think your probblem is, tht the com port /dev/ttyS0-3 are (and not
ttys).

try it with /dev/ttyS1 and I think you will get it.
