@György-Farkas you were right, hardware flow control was active and once I disabled it the console worked.

Thanks again for your help!

@György-Farkas , oh right, I forgot about hardware flow control... will try it once I get home.

Thank you!

Hi,

I have an Omega2 Pro and I am trying to log into it through the serial console available in the USB port.

I am using minicom, to access it from my main Linux computer and I can see the kernel booting messages and then a line telling me to press enter to activate the console, but it doesn't work. I don't get any output whatever I type.

The configuration I am using is 8N1 at 115200 (that is the one that generates the right output, I have also tried others just in case the communication parameters were changed once the OS boots but without success).

Is this the expected behavior? or should I consider some hardware problem between the USB-to-serial interface and the real serial port?
