Ok I have found out that my OS (Fedora Core 6) contains minicom under /usr/bin. I typed the command: ./minicom -s and went through the Serial port setup. Now the device that will be connected to COM1 on my PC needs 9600bps, 8 data bits, no party, 1 stop bit, no flow control. I set all of this up in minicom and I do get output from the device but it does not come out correctly. Instead of the output showing this:
Bootup sequence started....
I get something like this:
B
o
o
t
u
p
s
e
q
u
e
n
c
e
s
t
a
r
t
e
d
.

.
How do I fix this? I didn't see any obvious setup option.
