Description Toni Willberg 2003-07-07 12:01:54 UTC 
minicom-2.00.0-13
glibc-2.3.2-57
kernel-2.4.20-20.1.2013.nptl
redhat-release-8.0-8 (rawhide)

I did not test this on other versions.

1) start minicom as root from (gnome-)terminal without parameters
2) a+q -> quit  (or a+x -> quit)
3) when the terminal gets blank, press crtl+z
Suspended. Type "fg" to resume.

This still happens with FC2-test2

No usable bt:

Comment 2 Alan Cox 2004-06-21 15:45:03 UTC 
Can't duplicate it here .. Im confused when you hit ^Z and which app
is being ^Zdded
Comment 3 Toni Willberg 2004-06-21 16:37:10 UTC 
I can't seem to be able to reproduce on Fedora Core 2 anymore.
Earlier there was quite a long delay between Minicom cleared it's
screen and fully exited and terminal gained control again. This is
where I hit ^z. Now this isn't happening anymore and control is
returned in a snap.

I'll close this bug for now. Free free to reopen if someone can still
reproduce this.

Tested now with:
 minicom-2.00.0-18.1
 glibc-2.3.3-27
 kernel-2.6.6-1.435
 fedora-release-2-4
