When you see RING in minicom, just type ATA\n to tell your modem to answer the call. That's exactly what mgetty does before it throws up a login prompt. If you want to run ppp, you can start the remote pppd from minicom, exit from minicom and start pppd locally. To finish ppp, hang up the modem or kill pppd.
