Does anyone have a copy of the program makedev, for creating device driver
files for ditroff (nroff). The documentations says use it... but it is not
supplied. If anyone has a copy could they please mail me the source, or
binary for SV/AT 2.4 large model. Thanks.

Also, I remember from a while back a discussion about the console driver on
2.4 (I think). The problem that I have is that after a reboot the system is
in 25 line mode (readable font etc), but after using the screen for EGA/VGA
work the return screen has 24 lines and the bottom of all trailing characters
is missing (yuk font).

Does anyone know of a solution to this, if so please e-mail me.


Thanks.


PS How about some interesting tunes for the spkr driver, bugle is fun but tires
after 10-20 playings (ok for an alarm clock though :-)).
