Public bug reported: Hello,
I use minicom with an USB Adapter to communicate with a cisco switch. Everything went fine but when I close the program with ctrl+a, z and j, the lock at /dev/ttyUSB0 wasn't removed. :/ If I remove the file /var/lock/LCK..ttyUSB0, the device is unlocked. Sorry for my bad english. best regards, michael ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: minicom 2.7-1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.19.0-30.34~14.04.1-generic 3.19.8-ckt6 Uname: Linux 3.19.0-30-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.15 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Mon Oct 12 23:01:35 2015 EcryptfsInUse: Yes SourcePackage: minicom UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: minicom (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug third-party-packages trusty ** Description changed: Hello, - I use minicom to communicate with an USB Adapter to a cisco switch. + I use minicom with an USB Adapter to communicate with a cisco switch.
