Message-ID: <1990Nov9.234629.24885@opusc.csd.scarolina.edu> Date: 9 Nov 90 23:46:29 GMT Organization: Math Department, University of South Carolina (ahem; The USC) Lines: 14 I have investigated, and found the following bug. VLT (v. 4.846) will crash if you attempt to send a break to your Supre 2400zi. This is independent of the processor you use (68000 or 68030), and does not occur if you use the serial.device. Thus, I am leaning toward the possibility that the bug lies in modem0.device, but I guess this hasn't been proved. Does Supra have a net.presence? This bug is probably causing the problems that I reported eariler between getty/VLT/modem0.device. I am still looking for answers. ken -- Ken Yarnall /// yarnall@usceast.cs.scarolina.EDU Math Department, USC \\\/// yarnall@ucseast.UUCP Columbia, S.C. 29208 \\\/ (803)777-5218 `You'd better tie me up.' -- from the movie, "Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down"
