Minicom removed from latest Linux

Unread post by danielb »

Hi,

Minicom is no longer present following the latest Linux update.

Is there any chance it could be returned to the distribution in future? Alternatively, is there something else that replaces it?

Thanks,

D.

Only vaguely on-topic, but how were you utilizing minicom?

Away from mine right now, but if screen is present, you can use that as well.

At the moment, you need it to load games into my UK101 core.
