I am having problems using minicom to connect to a Cisco
router's
console port with FC6.  I am trying to run minicom on a
computer which
had FC4 installed with the same hardware and minicom worked
fine under
FC4.  When I test my serial ports with the dmesg and
setserial
commands I don't get the normal output:

rootgpblinux ~]# dmesg | grep tty
Xen virtual console successfully installed as ttyS0
[rootgpblinux ~]# setserial -g /dev/ttyS[01]
Cannot get serial info: Invalid argument
/dev/ttyS1: No such device or address

Under FC4 I get the UART info from setserial and dmesg shows
the irq
etc.

I'm sure I'm running minicom correctly because it works fine
uner
FC4.  I have tried minicom on several different computers
with FC6 and
they all have the same problem and the dmesg and setserial
command
provide the same output mentioned above.

I suspect that the serial port is not being activiated by
default as
was done in FC4.  How would I activiate it under FC6?
