Hi Mr newbie here. Using 32-bit Ubuntu 11.10 and Wine 1.3.28. I have installed a Creative PCI Modem and that works well as /dev/modem from things like putty. I've done the link ln -s /dev/modem ~/.wine/dosdevices/com6 so it's now my com6 within wine. However, using teraterm the response from the modem is bitty and slow and pretty useless. If I do something like AT\r the OK\r does come back but very slowly. I can make it dial a number but you cant see the connect or login message properly and you cant use it.
Any ideas?
Cheers - Rich

Then, of course, there's Kermit, the most flexible and powerful of the
lot. It works as both a dial-up and telnet terminal, can emulate several
types of terminal and does file transfers if there's a copy of Kermit at
the remote end. Its available for most operating systems. You can get it
from here, http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ck80.html
but the OP will probably need to compile it himself, usually a
straight-forward process.

Minicom is part of the Fedora distro and probably others too.
