Apr 3, 2024 at 18:51 comment added theSparky Running remote server via PuTTY and connecting to serial console with TERM=linux minicom -D /dev/ttyUSBPort2 allowed the PuTTY window to stay the same size, and the remote serial console understood the right size as well, as checked by stty size
Aug 25, 2020 at 20:45 comment added Ruslan This specification of TERM works fine for e.g. vim, journalctl and some other programs, but not for man, gdb and maybe some more. For these I had to use stty cols 316 rows 94.
Feb 28, 2019 at 3:18 comment added Elliptical view Above aliases don't work for me. Instead use alias minicom='TERM=linux minicom' (works w/ bash 4.4.12 in GNU/Linux Debian 9.6 stretch).
Apr 18, 2018 at 0:49 comment added lordhog @While-E, your alias is incorrect. Should it be alias TERM='linux minicom -s'??
Mar 19, 2018 at 17:57 comment added While-E I don't understand why, but hell it works exactly the way I want! Thank you sir! I suggest making alias in /etc/.bashrc for anyone that uses it frequently:: alias='TERM=linux minicom -s
Oct 15, 2017 at 10:42 comment added Thomas Dickey Maybe/maybe not: minicom doesn't do anything with that value; you may have some application that assumes a particular geometry and sets the terminal size using stty.
