Summary: Minicom fails to initialize serial port

Initial Comment:
I;m using minicom to attach to an embedded system's
serial port via a null modem connection.  By initial
connection, once I set the serial port to /dev/ttyS0,
spped to 9600, and no hardware flow control works fine.
 If I do this everytime when I connect everything is
still fine.

If I save the configuration and invoke minicom nothing
happens.  If I delete the configuration file and go
back to the above, I can get it to communicate?

I upgraded to the latest minicom and no matter what is
has the second behavior; i.e. won't communicate.

The system is a RedHat 8.0 system will all of the
patches applied:

garand:$ uname -a
Linux garand.zero-origin.com 2.4.20-19.8smp #1 SMP Tue
Jul 15 15:01:43 EDT 2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
g

Any clues?

Thanks,

Jeff Andre

[Sorry for the test posting, I had problems replying
previously.]

Ok, some questions.

When you reinvoke minicom with the saved options, all the
options are set in the menu? Or are there other values?
Does the status line at the bottom show the right values?
How does you configuration file look like?
