there is no minicom installed here... nor any other text mode terminal program other than xterm, konsole, and similar that come standard with this Kubuntu installation...

i open a text terminal window (konsole) and type

  telnet mybbs

OR

  ssh mybbs

which connects to my sbbs... i log in, go to the [T]ransfer section, find a file to download, and tell the bbs to send it... that's all i do... the zmodem start sequence triggers my terminal to perform a zmodem download and it saves the file in my normal "Downloads" directory...

i can also upload files in almost the same manner by using CTRL-ALT-U... it just works :)
