From: axlas@acad2.alaska.edu (Leif A Sawyer) Subject: Serial Probs -> .97! & Termcap help wanted Date: 2 Aug 1992 20:19:52 GMT
Ok. Just a couple of quickies:
First off... Just upgraded to .97, looks good so far, no real problems
on my 386/33. Init code FINALLY recognized my 16550AN as the real thing.
Bus mouse is ok! Haven't noticed the system being any slower than .96c-2.
However - and this STILL is bugging me - My comm ports are behaving rather
weirdly. No dropped characters or anything, but everything is Jerky, coming
in in groups of 10 - 15 characters at a time, then pausing.
Yes, I realize that this has been happening since .96a, but I've no intention
of sticking with .95 just to be able to dial out! I just can't figure out
where the problem is at. Mayhap SOMEbody does.
Secondly, where can I find info on setting up a termcap entry? I'd like
to know exactly what linux uses for termcap.. Some of them I've figured out
just by the ansi code, but others are beyond me.. Any help?
Thanks again!
Leif
