I need advice on this problem:
Trying to install the COMM-Package in SmallTalk V/286 I always end up with
a flickering window and nothing more to do than a warmstart. I tried to install
it incremental and found that everything seemed to be ok until after installing
 a Dipatcher method modification for activeWindow. The trouble seems to be the
polling of the Cominterrupts. We did not recompile the commprim.asm. Must this
file be modified for a Neat-board based PC with 2 commports ?
Nobody else ever stumbled over this problem?
Thank you very much in advance -
Thomas .
