I get the same problem with minicom (never had it happen with PPP though). It happens with my system in two different situations: a) when uploading via zmodem using minicom (lots of crc errors. it almost looks like a flow-control problem). b) when using minicom and switching vt's rapidly. I'd appreciate any help on this one too... -- drwho @ xnet.com -- http://www.xnet.com/~drwho/ "Freedom of government is good, but freedom FROM government is better."
