[Voyage-linux] Problem connecting to ALIX 3D3 via USB-to-Serial cable

[Konstantinos Birkos]

Hello all,

I have an ALIX 3D3 board with Voyage MPD 0.8.5 installed and serial 
terminal chosen during the installation process. I am trying to connect 
to the device via a USB-to-Serial cable unsuccessfully. I have tried 
Putty through Windows and Putty, GTKTerm and minicom through Ubuntu 
12.04. When I power up my device, I see no messages in the terminal. 
Sometimes under minicom, if I hit the keyboard of my host computer I 
receive some input/output errors.

Any suggestions?
