Greetings. I need to be able to use Com1 on my laptop with a Cisco console cable like to connect to a router's console port and do things. In Windows, I used hyperterminal - what is my equivalent in SuSe v9.0??
Thanks, Jeff
"gtkterm", it's an attempt to provide a hyperterminal clone. I've used it for quite a while to provide a serial terminal access to Sun servers and also booting Linux with option "console=ttyS0" in order to view and capture console output on my laptop, excellent for capturing kernel oopses to send to ther kernel mailing list. http://www.jls-info.com/julien/linux/gtkterm-0.99.4.tar.gz http://freshmeat.net/redir/gtkterm/36191/url_tgz/gtkterm-0.99.4.tar.gz, easy to build and install from the sources.
