I upgraded my HP Omnibook 800 from hamm to slink a few weeks ago, and since then have been unable to use the version of minicom that's part of that dist. When I attempt to dial, it puts up an alert telling me "You're already online; please hangup" -- or words to that effect.
When I moved my desktop from hamm to slink a few months ago I had no problems. 1.82 is the version of minicom that came with my slink. When I grepped the sources for the alert string (and several small parts of it) I couldn't find it. Finally, I went back to the hamm source disks and got the sources for minicom 1.75. The strings weren't there either -- but when I built that version of minicom it worked just fine. I'm using a pcmcia modem, but am not sure that it's the problem, as ppp still works fine over it. Any ideas?
