I remember the ADM3A - it was cheap and plentiful. I think the "Fox" was the PE model 1100, the "OWL" was the1200. The 1100 was replaced with the 550, the 1100 with the 1200. Those were all build by PE in Flanders, NJ. There was one last series of PE built terminals that was built in Flanders

OS/32 is pretty dumb when it comes to terminal handling. Basic command line interface, a line oriented editor. Later versions came with "medit" and microemacs, both of which are screen editors and configurable for about anything. It'll work with just about any normal dumb terminal. Pick one t

Probably would. Would this affect any system apps? I haven't seen anything in the os yet that seems crt oriented. Also what about the other ports, is there a terminal type that OS/32 supports that's easier to emulate? Or is there a terminal emulator that does the 550 or 1100's? On Thu, Sep 1, 2

Hi Davis, Do you think that reconfiguring the console back to a tty might work? i.e. Change "CON: ,10,39,XDCOD=X2A0D,RECL=120,CONS" back to "CON: , 2,16,CONS *CONSOLE - M33 TTY" which is what is was in the default sysgen. Don ___ S

It could be many things. Without seeing the text, it will be hard to help you, On Debian, you can start 'script' before ssh to capture your session into 'typescript',. See 'man script' for detai,s. After exiting ssh, exit bash to close script. You could be dealing with a parity issue, or the 127s

I am using bash under the arm 64 version of debian mate on a pine64. I am remoting in using ssh. The remote system is bash under Linux mint. After going through the guide to build a system from tapes there is a section that enables more terminals, disks and probably other things. All is well unt

Maybe to vlarify myself. DEQNA-LOCK is not something I would expect Ultrix to turn on, and the code Ragge posted certainly reported it without appearing to modify it. And it would not make sense to modify it before that point, and if it was changed after that point, dmesg should not report it.

Assume for the moment you are running OS/32 and MTM, not reliance or other software on top of OS/32 that needs a specific terminal. There are two big issues you have with using a VT-100 emulator (or a real VT-100, for that matter) on OS/32: OS/32 defaults to using 7F (177 for you DEC folks) c
