Subject: [Need Help] TERM hangs after four characters?
Date: Fri, 24 Sep 1993 07:00:31 GMT

Hi

I'm running SLS Linux 1.03 and X3 ( X server for S3 chipset) on an IBM VP
386 33DX/3 and am trying to get term up and running, but every time I connect
it "hangs" after I type 4 characters... My procedure is the following:

Dial up remote system via KERMIT
log on to remote machine
run "term" remotely
escape back to local prompt
suspend kermit
run "term < /dev/cua0 > /dev/cua0"
go to another shell window and run "trsh"

At this point, it connects remotely ( a Sun 4 ) and seems ok. I type "ls" and
return at which point the remote directories are listed. Fine. I try "ls"
but only the "l" is displayed and the window seemingly freezes!

If I kill the "trsh" process, start kermit again, connect, and fire off "000000"
the remote "term" ends and I'm back at the remote prompt.

I've run linecheck and test and all is "seemingly" well...
Has anyone had this problem? Am I missing something here?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
