(patch snipped) Thanks, i typed it in by hand cause there was e-mail damage -- tried to repair it using vim with line endings and tabs displayed, but didn't fix it well enough for 'patch'. no errors during the compile, and alas no change noticeable. i uncommented the /var/log/debug option in /etc/syslog.conf and restarted syslogd/klogd from /etc/rc.d/rc.syslog (slackware v10.0 of about a year and a hlaf back), but nothing. might enabling one or more of the kernel debugging options help? I can do so and retest, and try another patch. I only use minicom from the console and haven't made the effort to get it to work in both X and console with keyboard and character display correct (may not be too hard;).
m is aliased to `echo -en "\033(U";minicom;echo -en "\033(B"' and this also from ~/.bash_profile after 'tic'ing the minicom terminfo entry supplied with minicom.
