Subject: kermit doesn't work under X - SLS 0.99p9

Hi,
I'm trying to dial out in kermit in an xterm running bash
while the X386mono server and twm are running. I get the
message (from memory) "can't make connection to modem".
My modem is set to /dev/modem -> /dev/cua2.
When I hit cntl-alt-backspace to terminate X, I can
execute kermit, dial out, the works. Why would the
system be able to connect to the modem under a plain
shell, but not when X is running?

Thanks,

Brandon
