RE: VT320 Fonts
Try doing a search on google for "fonts terminal" (without the quotes) and you may find something suitable amongst the results. Kevin Parker -Original Message- From: cctech On Behalf Of Kyle Owen via cctech Sent: Friday, 12 October 2018 09:02 To: General Discussion: On-Topic and Off-Topic Posts Subject: VT320 Fonts Does anyone know of any more downloadable VT320 fonts and glyphs? This is about all I could find at the moment. https://vt100.net/dec/vt320/fonts Trying to find some Cyrillic fonts so that Tetris looks right. I suppose I can try to write my own, but that would take a good bit of effort to get it looking right. Also, is there a way to dump the existing font on a VT320 in the DRCS format? Thanks, Kyle
Old Univac Tape and Printer Maintenance Manuals
Hi: I'm looking for maintenance manuals for old Univac tape and printers. I've already mined Bitsavers and done some fairly extensive Google searches but would like manuals on: Tapes: Uniservo IIA, IIIA or IIIC, VIC, VIIIC, 12, 16 or 20 Printers: 0751, 0755 (used on 1108), 0758 (used on 1108 and 494), 0768 (used on 92/9300) or 0770 series (used on 1100) Pointers to on line versions would be appreciated. If you have hardcopies I'll be happy to buy them and give back a scan, or pay for the scan. Tom
RE: Old Univac Tape and Printer Maintenance Manuals
Tom will check I was looking thru some univac stuff. and saw ..trying to find manuals for that odd freiden flexowritrer sorta thing that was used on univac 422 that has a punch and reader that...separates. YES SEPERATES! from the side of the typer... so weird I must have one of these... .. having a univac 422 attached to it would be a real bonus... do you have any of those? OK back to your manuals.. will check this evening. ed# www.smecc.org Sent from AOL Mobile Mail On Saturday, October 13, 2018 Tom Gardner via cctalk wrote: Hi: I'm looking for maintenance manuals for old Univac tape and printers.

Knowing now that it's a sort of hinge made all the difference - it was not initially obvious. And yes, it was the Lithium RTC battery that was flat. I've temp. fitted a different type of battery and lo and behold, it's booted just fine. # uname -a unix Altos 5.3.1 b 386/1000 (empty) (empty) (empty) 11 It's an older full-height 5.25" SCSI drive by the looks of it - not sure I want to take it out right now to image it, but once I've re-remembered the horrors of uucp, kermit or however else I can get stuff on/off it via serial port... (ugh. no uucp, but it does have a C compiler, vi and make, what more do I need ;-) Looks like it's the base model with 8 serial ports, 4MB of RAM and a 386/DX-16 ... a bit faster than a pdp11, but ... Now, about this Y2K thing... hardware RTC seems fine with it, but SysVr3... Nope )-: Cheers, Gordon

hopefully, Jim Stevens was able to save some of the docs from the Univac III On 10/13/18 1:36 PM, Tom Gardner via cctalk wrote: > Hi: > > I'm looking for maintenance manuals for old Univac tape and printers.

Re: Old Univac Tape and Printer Maintenance Manuals
You may also need to make a field trip to CBI to check the Univac corporate archives On 10/13/18 3:55 PM, Al Kossow via cctalk wrote: > hopefully, Jim Stevens was able to save some of the docs from the Univac III > > On 10/13/18 1:36 PM, Tom Gardner via cctalk wrote: >> Hi: >> >> I'm looking for maintenance manuals for old Univac tape and printers.

Re: Old Univac Tape and Printer Maintenance Manuals
Bill Donzelli may have things in the part of the Univac load he has either in OKC or at his place. I gathered all the documentation on the remains of a stolen Univac III system I could, along with all the tapes. Muffed an opportunity to get the tapes to Al K for digitizing, will organize another run when he has capacity to tackle it. There is also a Uniservo that was overlooked in the heist that was rescued, but not enough to run it much, just the drive. thanks jim On 10/13/2018 3:55 PM, Al Kossow via cctalk wrote: hopefully, Jim Stevens was able to save some of the docs from the Univac III On 10/13/18 1:36 PM, Tom Gardner via cctalk wrote: Hi: I'm looking for maintenance manuals for old Univac tape and printers.
