I got a new error: cannot open device: not owner Don't know what that means, but I decided to su to root, and try there. cannot open device: device busy HMM... OK..Give up on /dev/cua, and try /dev/ttya. Hey! It works! Why does it work? I set speed to 2400, and connected (I'm using Kermit 5A). OK...I'm talking to the modem now. And I get these little bursts of PostScript coming from the Cube!!! )cvs print(, 126 1181 ]%%)= flush is an example of one line that I caught. Something on my Cube is trying to send PostScript code out Serial Port A! I have no idea what's doing it. Can someone give me a clue, or point me in a direction so that I can find out what's doing this? Thanks,
