No. Kill just sends a signal (default SIGTERM). Minicom catches the signal, cleans up by closing files and restoring the terminal settings and then exits. Sounds like it restores the serial port settings as well. Try 'kill -9': that cannot be caught (it will leave the terminal in a strange state, though. Use 'reset' to fix it). > What does kill do that effects the DTR? Nothing. > first time I've ever seen an upgrade of Debian Stable hose a system!
