Message-ID: <698@solaria.csun.edu> Date: 9 May 89 00:44:11 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: CSU Northridge Lines: 20 I have been trying unsucessfully to get the patches to st-minix to work. I can compile them fine but when I try to run MINIX.PRG from the desktop using my 'new' image, the mouse just freezes in the center of the screen. I have the patches that came across here and they started at #4. I don't have access to ftp, (yet! I've been waiting but finally forced to post) so I can't get them from the archives. When I try to use the servers at any of the archive sites supporting them, I never hear any reply. Do I need patches 1, 2, 3 in order to use ST-MINIX 1.1? Maybe somebody could send me a list of (in painstaking detail, assume I'm an idiot, hmm... :-) all the steps they used to get it up and going.
