Keywords: aix ps/2 rt print screen device driver Message-ID: <60@blender.UUCP> Date: 27 Nov 89 00:49:12 GMT References: <17347@rpp386.cactus.org> Lines: 24 I have the VRM Technical Reference manual for my RT and within it there's quite a good section on device drivers. It supplies function calls, methods for installation into the VRM, and some examples. I'm just flipping through it right now and there's a whole section on using the HFT display structures, etc... There is also a set of examples on the release diskettes that do various things. ie: query a location on the screen, turn the keyboard lights on and off, display mouse input, etc... I would really suggest picking up the VRM Tech Ref Manual. The number of it is 59x9093. However, I'm not sure if it's printed anymore since it came with the original version of AIX for my machine and the release of that version was 1.0 B47 (which I imagine to be Beta#47). I notice they don't provide the AIX Technical Reference manual anymore either. It's really sad since those two manuals are by far the most important manuals in the whole set, for myself anyway. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- UUCP: herb@blender.UUCP || ...calgary!xenlink!blender!{herb||root} ICBM: 51 03 N / 114 05 W || Apollo Sys_admin, Novatel Communications "The other day, I......
