Re: minicom problem

Make sure that your COM ports are on different IRQs (COM1-IRQ4,COM2-IRQ3).

Sounds like minicom is trying to write to your mouse. Does your minicom use the correct COM port?

Re: minicom problem

thanks for the reply
this is my booting message for com1 and com2
ttyS0 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A
ttyS1 at 0x02f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A

Re: minicom problem

please run "minicom -s" to set initialization parameters:

Serial port setup -> Serial device:/dev/ttyS1

Re: minicom problem

I suggest you to switch ports:
move the mouse to first serial port and plug the cable into second serial port.
then you'll have to reconfigure the minicom to use the correct port (ttyS1).
Let us know if it helps.
