there are several errors and minicom doesn't seem to be able to manipulate
the installed driver.  It seems to be impossible to dial out.  Anyhow, you
can find the logs of my attempts attached, tarred and gzipped.  Build had
errors, modprobe had errors, and minicom seems to think that it is dialing
out when it actually is not.  Anyhow, could you guys please take a look at
my logs and tell me what you think might be going on?

Thanks for your help guys,
Mike
