Public thanks to Richard Hitt of Utsglobal for getting ned to work again. Ned
works from the 3270 console and the native standalone 3270 session.

FYI - 3270 console support is available in TaoLinux/390. All I had to do was

Ned in UTS when confronted with a non-3270 forked the UTS sim3270(1)
program and piped to and from it. The capability remains in ned, but we
have not offered sim3270(1), so the point is sort of moot.
FWIW, once you copy over liblms.so, run ldconfig, and create the
appropriate device entries, ned works quite nicely on Debian Sarge.

Thanks, Richard.
I like the phrase "fullscreen mode" better, because (1) "block mode" can
be confused with block special devices, and (2) the 3270 driver always
runs a 3270 in block mode; at least as I wrote it the 3270 is inherently
a block-mode device, whether used in line mode or in fullscreen m

As to /dev/3270/tub* being block devices, that's new to me. Could you

Are you saying my device should be tub0700 rather than tty0700?
I looked at the device list on kernel.org and saw that /dev/3270/tty* is a
character device and /dev/3270/tub* is a block device.

Indeed Linux does TERM CONMODE. See
linux/arch/s390/kernel/setup.c:conmode_default(). The s390 kernel has
had a cpcmd() function since the beginning, and it's used for a few
other CP commands too. e.g. SET PAGEX ON in traps.c.
