Hrm.. I could do that later on tonight.  Do you want that output when 
a call comes in or just in it's normal state.  Are you sure that mgetty 
is setup properly in /etc/inittab on the right port?  You should also 
edit /etc/mgetty/mgetty.conf (or where ever it is on your system) to 
configure each port's settings and most importantly, turn the 
debug level up to 9.  Test with an incoming call and then take a 
look at /var/log/mgetty/mg_ttySX.  You will probably find lots of 
usefull info in there.  Be aware though that after an incoming call 
goes through mgetty restarts itself, so you'll have to scroll back 
through a couple pages of startup messages to where the error 
happens.
