The books that came with your Qube should give you the serial port 
configuration necessary to see the output.  For a RaQ4 serial interface, it 
is 115200 8N1.  To set this up, I would do the following once in minicom:

	1. press Ctrl-A, then o to enter minicom configuration
	2. Enter Serial port setup
	3. press e to edit the Bps/Par/Bits
	4. press i to change the speed to 115200
	5. press q to use 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit (aka 8N1)

Once that is done, you should be able to go back to the main minicom screen 
and see the serial output.  My version of minicom is 2.00.0.  Other versions 
may have different steps than the ones above, but they should be similar.
