Well, it looks like the link for Zaurus Minicom is gone. Does anybody have a minicom.ipk they can send me?

Forum guidelines -> MAKE A SIGNATURE, please. ;-)
You need to specify what OS you are running and what version... If it's the sharp rom then I suggest killefiz... |

Sorry about that. I usually look over the forum rules before posting. Even after your suggestion, I couldn't find the note regarding sig lines.
Anyhow, I found a minicom executable, and a libncurses file. Now I'm running Libncurses.so.4 and require .5 for minicom. If this were the other way around, I would ln and be done with it. Sigh. |

Consider kermit, I prefer it over minicom.

Oops - I apologise, it may not be listed as a forum rule... but it does help people understand a situation better.

I'd rather have someone with no sig than the idiotic half-page sigs I see regularly. They take a whole page on the Z screen as well  Yours is pretty much perfect: specs and a short word, but some people just don't know where to stop. |

here's my libncurses stuff from /usr/lib tar'd up
I know it's been a while, but I've been busy with other stuff / try to solve my own problems. There is a 263K file for libncurses.4.0, and all the other files in your archive are all 0 bytes. Did you make an alias for libncurses5? I've done some fairly extensive searches, and it seems (dot)5 is hard to find. I'll try kermit, and see if I'm more successful. |

Did you make an alias for libncurses5? the other files are soft links. seems I now have libncurses.so.5.4, courtesy of cacko-full, there are links to it called libncurses.so.5, libncurses.so.5.0 and libncurses.so do you want a tar.gz of these as well? |

Yes, that would be swell.
I've got kermit installed and running. I've never used it before, so the commands are a stumbling block. In addition, it was built for a 5500, so I'm not sure if I'm on the right track. (Now researching Cacko, and preparing to reflash the 6000) |

I found this extremely minimal terminal program which you might find useful, depending on your needs. I think I originally found it on zsi or elsi under the name tipterm but the ipk was messed up. I fixed the ipk and found the source code for it (both are attached). The author claims it is tip-like but it is definitely not a port of tip. It's a very simple command line-based app that simply lets you type to the serial port while it echoes back characters from the serial port. If you run it in a vt100 shell you get vt100 support.
 If you connect to a modem with it and you know the AT command set, you have modem support. It should be compilable on virtually any linux/unix.~ray

sweet. I'll load it up when I get home. Unfortunately the security admin at work just told me he doesn't want my Z touching any servers.
BTW are you going to load this up to elsix.org? |

BTW are you going to load this up to elsix.org? I wasn't going to because it's already there (http://www.elsix.org/index.php?w=project&p=977) and I'm not the author. The download link in that entry only gives a binary. There is a link to the project homepage but it was difficult to find the app there. I finally found it on their ftp server: there was an ipk (but it was bad) along with the source. I guess I could submit the fixed ipk but I can't seem to figure out how to do it. Do I have to take ownership of the project before I can update it? ~ray |
