Spell out your words, please. Have you verified the baud rate? And I'm not sure where minicom comes into this, since you're logging the data outside of minicom.

And you don't say where you got the ttylog program, what version/distro of Linux you're using, or what you're trying to do. But if you just want to capture the data, why not just tell minicom to capture it? Hit "L" from the menu...tell it what file. Done.
