I use Seyon 2.14b under Linux 0.99.12 and have no problems with sz/rz.
Here are the relevant entries from my protocols file:

        "Upload (Zmodem)" "$cd $HOME/upload; sz -w 2048 -o -b" y
        "Download (Zmodem)" "$cd $HOME/download; rz" n

I have it automatically cd to directories I created for file transfers,
then run sz/rz. The sz options are what I found works with the machine
I usually call - they may not be right for other machines. They are:

        -w 2048 Restrict window size to 2048 bytes
        -o Disable automatic selection of 32 bit CRC
        -b Binary override; transfer file without any translation

Here's what I have in .Xdefaults:

        Seyon.autoZmodem: True
        Seyon.autoZmodemAction: ShellCommand("$cd $HOME/download;rz");Beep();
        Seyon.modems: /dev/modem
