<DIV>BTW, I've since discovered -m option, which allows me to sidestep the issue
(which apparently has existed for *years* for some users). However, I'd
rather actually know why it doesn't recognize the control keys in the first
place... </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I should note that, in both console sessions and ssh sessions, other
programs (such as vi) are recognizing control keys with no problems...</DIV>

<DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> minicom: control keys don't
work??</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I'm trying to use minicom on a SuSE 9.3 system (kernel 2.6.11), to test
dialup modems before hooking up mgetty.</DIV>
<DIV>We've done this in the past with earlier kernel versions (2.2.19) and
never had any problems.</DIV>
<DIV>With *this* system, though, I don't know how to get minicom to recognize
control keys - which is a *big*</DIV>
<DIV>problem once I'm inside the program!! I have to open a separate
window and killall the process to get it to close!!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I downloaded the current sources, configure'd and rebuilt the package,
and still have this problem.</DIV>
<DIV>We have the "ignored control keys" issue both in physical console and
within an ssh session.</DIV>
<DIV>What do I need to do, to resolve this??</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My first guess was playing with language settings (LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE,
LANG, LANGUAGE),</DIV>
<DIV>setting them to one of { C, en_US, en_US.UTF8 }, but these do not seem to
have made any difference.</DIV>
