    I really like the lfs setup. I've thought of doing it for years but
    never got it done until recently, I never should have put it off.

    Did you get modemu2k and minicom installed yet?

    Not yet but it is on my todo list. I need that terminal for zmodem and friends.

    I plan to grab the sources and patches from the slackware source tree for minicom and lrzsz. I had a look at the SlackBuild but I got lost in there so I need to sit down and work it out.

    I did. I'm logged in with minicom now using modemu2k and just tested a couple downloads.

    Works like a champ!

    Awesome!

    But I doubt I'll be maintaining modemu2k much longer. Syncterm is superior and I don't think
    I'll have the interest or motivation to implement ssh support for modemu2k.

    Hello Andy,

    But I doubt I'll be maintaining modemu2k much longer.

    I'm not sure that anyone cares about such things anymore, but I do.

    I'm not sure there is much to be done with modemu2k now but I hope you can keep an eye on it.

    Syncterm is superior and I don't think I'll have the interest or motivation to implement ssh support for modemu2k.

    I have always had syncterm installed. It has always built and run for me even on the console but I haven't had success building syncterm here without xorg and friends.

    I have xorg and friends installed now so I'm sure I can get it done but minicom is working for me anyway.


    Ttyl :-),

    ... It doesn't work, but it looks pretty.
