Hi Rudi,
1) please TRIM the replies.
2) don't let people try to guess your setup
- your initial email does not event state your CentOS version/arch
- your should have told that you were using xen at the very beginning
- post the relevant lines of /var/log/messages and/or the config files
of the program(s) you are using: it will avoid typos such as tty0/ttyS0
...
just like you did with: :D
[root@venus /]# grep tty /var/log/dmesg
Xen virtual console successfully installed as ttyS0
[root@venus /]# setserial /dev/ttyS0
Cannot get serial info: Invalid argument
[root@venus /]#
It may seem that Xen uses ttyS0 for itself, but how do I get around it?
show the grub.conf entry of your kernels (dom0/domU)
and/or /proc/cmdline content.

Hi Tru
Sorry for the inconvenience, since this is a CentOS list, I didn't think
it's necessary to say I'm using CentOS. And to be honest with you, I
didn't think there's a problem on the server, but more that I didn't
know how to use minicom - which was the case.
Only after people recommended a few other things, did I think of Xen.
Anyway, it's working now. I had to change the Xen config in
/boot/grub/menu and tell Xen not to use ttyS0 as a serial console for
itself.
