Re: [Gumstix-users] File System and Hello World Problems ...

[Cesar P. <ces...@gm...>]

Dave, I unplugged everything and now I have set-up the gumstix+robostix,
serial converter and the acroname RS232. When I try to log into the gumstix
it hangs. I do ./kermit -l /dev/ttyUSB0 (just as before) do all the set
commands and connect. Then I plug the gumstix to power and it just hangs
here ...

(/home/cesar/Desktop/kermit/) C-Kermit>connect
Connecting to /dev/ttyUSB0, speed 115200
 Escape character: Ctrl-\ (ASCII 28, FS): enabled
Type the escape character followed by C to get back,
or followed by ? to see other options.
----------------------------------------------------

What seems to be the problem? I have triple checked all the connections and
they were just like before. I did a dmesg and the USB to serial is there at
ttyUSB0.
