   Yes, it wouldn't build for me and I was short of time then to have a closer   
   look.

   Yes, that's the way I have always built syncterm. Usually I also do "sudo make   
   install" when make is done and I am good to go.

   Yes. When I build syncterm an a machine with out xorg or SDL it runs fine from   
   the console. It doesn't have any desktop support (which is also nice) but   
   works fine from the console.

   I wish I would have dug in a bit more but I'll do that on the next go around.

   Yep, I like minicom. I am about to get xmms installed. It needs an older   
   version of glib installed. The source and a bunch of patches live in the   
   slackware tree so I'll go grab it from there and try my luck.   
      
   I usually use vlc or audacious but xmms is nice too.
