I'm having some weird interaction between mgetty and pppd/chat. I have mgetty running on a couple of modems. When I dialout (pon), I start getting error messages from mgetty in the log, like
05/01 20:47:09 yS1 mdm_read_byte: read returned 0: Success 05/01 20:47:09 yS1 wfr: error in read(): Success 05/01 20:47:09 yS1 huh? Junk on the line? However, mgetty manages to send a few CRs through or something which causes my chat script to fail (it aborts the connection). When I disable mgetty on that port in inittab, it works just fine. The other modem port has this problem on occasion too, although it runs a 24x7 connection so I don't notice it much. Is there a workaround? It's most annoying and has been bugging me for a while.
