Many thanfs for the info. I have now installed minicom - but I still cannot get it to talk to the modem (USR Sportster 33.6 external on the first serial port). It also does not support Wyse60 (I'm not sure that that was what was meant - I was listening to instructions over the 'phone - sounded like 'y60' to me but that is close!). I hope I don't have to resort to a windows solution - I get fed up with having to use it at work!
