Message-ID: <51852@nigel.ee.udel.edu> Date: 25 Apr 91 13:42:00 GMT Sender: mmdf@ee.udel.edu Lines: 26 Hi mininers: Now I'm trying to add a terminal on a PC-286 using MINIX-PC 1.5.10. But it always failed. I've set the terminal to 1200 baud, 8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit. And it is connected on com2. So I type: # stty 1200 8 < /dev/tty2 (on superuser account) And I try to test the terminal. So I type: # cat /etc/passwd > /dev/tty2 There is no response at all! I've check RS-232 cable connection. No matter I exchange pin2 and pin3 or not, there is no response. The terminal which I use is VT-100 compatable. Any idea or any suggestions? Thanks! Chen Chi-Jung. (r78128@cs.ee.ntu.edu.tw)
