HyperTerm equivalent for Linux?

glock19 · 06-03-2003, 04:48 PM

Does anyone know of a HyperTerm equivalent for Linux? I would like a graphical telnet program that I can use to easily connect to another computer which is running serial console redirection. Would be nice if it was a Gnome app also

Thanks.

minicom used to work really well but that was a long time ago.
I don't think it's even distributed anymore.

minicom comes with Red Hat Linux 9. It's working pretty well.

I was looking for a graphical application though.

I know you say you are looking for a gui but seriously I use telnet when I need a hyperterm equiv.

minicom seems to be the most up to date serial communications package. You could try seyon, though I doubt that'll be much better.

Sorry if this thread is too long.
I try to use seyon.But it can not #make.

[root@localhost seyon-2.20c]# xmkmf
imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config
[root@localhost seyon-2.20c]# make
rm -f version.h
./ad2c Seyon.ad > Seyon.ad.h
./makever.sh
/bin/sh: line 1: ./makever.sh: Permission denied
make: *** [version.h] Error 1
[root@localhost seyon-2.20c]#

how can i do? I use Redhat 8.0 kernel 2.4.18-14. Help me!

installation:
1) edit config.h according to your system. "How?"

2) run xmkmf to generate the make file. "OK"

3) do 'make' to build Seyon. "error"

4) do 'make install' to install the program and the support files.

5) do 'make install.man' to install the manual page.

6) make the directory ~/.seyon and copy the files startup,
phonefile, and protocols to that directory and modify them according to your setup.

7) read the README file and the manual page.

Help me pls step by step.
