I have this dockstar connected to thru a serial cable and minicom.
But ONLY the display is working.
I can't type anything,no carrier,nada.
I don't understand where is the problem.

Well maybe the wire going to TX is not connected properly (aka the right pin or to nothing at all). Check your connections.

It's ok now.
Was my fault.
I did a wrong connection of the ground cable.
Everything's ok now.

The discussion might have continued from here.
