Never mind... The AT&T support people now agree that it doesn't work.
Also, you can't run Simultask at all through a network login.
I'm sure they'll be happy to sell us the next release when it comes
out so we can try it to find out if the bugs are still there...

Calling the terminal a 615 turns off the attempt to use scancode mode
and comes close enough on the emulation to run some things.
