Lines: 39 Keywords: DCOM 3.3 vt100 emulator Well, the gremlins struck. No problem, the fixes are easy. PROBLEM 1: Modem parameters are not being saved when they should be. EVERYONE SHOULD APPLY THIS PATCH IF THEY SAVE PARAMETERS. FIX: Load the basic program "HELLO" from the DCOM disk. (This program controls the startup and exit from the machine language terminal.) Type the following. ("]" is your prompt character) ]LOAD HELLO ]850 PRINT CHR$ (4)"BSAVE "F$(6)".D,A$4012,L13" ]SAVE HELLO PROBLEM 2: VIDEX 80 column card "gets sea-sick and monitor emits 21KHz whine". This is due to a hardware change in some videx cards. ONLY APPLY THIS PATCH IF YOU USE A VIDEX CARD. THIS PATCH MAKES THE EMULATOR HARDWARE SPECIFIC. FIX: ]LOAD HELLO ]730 PR#3:PR#0:IN#0:CALL 8195:REM VIDEX CARDOWNERS ONLY! ]SAVE HELLO Note that what was "CALL 8192" is now "CALL 8195". ----------------------------------------------------------------------- WARNING: MAKE A BACKUP COPY BEFORE YOU MAKE THESE CHANGES! THIS IS AN ORDER! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Have fun, and as you have been doing, let me know if something pops up. AND most of all, thanks for YOUR help in tracking down these bugs. -Jim Hayes, UC San Diego. ARPA: hayes@ucsd.edu -or- hayes@sdcsvax.arpa UUCP: {nearest backbone}!sdcsvax!hayes
