Hi,

I have a usb serial adapter and was happily using minicom with it under openSUSE 11.2. I've upgraded to openSUSE 11.3 and I can only use minicom with this serial adapter as root. I had previously had problems writing to /var/lock under openSUSE 11.2 which I worked around by changing the minicom config to use /tmp as its lock file location.

I recently upgraded to ubuntu 12.04 from 10.04. Under 10.04 I had no trouble using usbserial driver to connect to a device through the serial port. After the upgrade usually I cannot reset the baud rate: it is initialized to 9600, but my device needs 115200.

I have used tmux to run several processes in defferent windows from /etc/rc.local. I connect to the board using its serial port and an inittab entry to run getty on that port.
