Matt, thanks for the tip, I mean cu : )

I went to the F4 terminal and typed at the login prompt

login: ~^D
[EOT]
#

Then I was able to successfully serial console in the term on fvwm X.

Best regards,

rogern

To disconnect from cu type enter then ~.

Watch out because ssh also uses that sequence to disconnect - if you're
going through ssh use ~~. so cu gets the disconnect and not ssh.
