Hi! I have a question for anyone who can give me an answer(g)!
|
|
I'm in need of a monitor for my mm/1 and would like to have the specs on
|
|
a NEC multisync 2A. I have no info on it and would like to know several
|
|
things like: Dot pitch and scan rates. Any info will help. Thanks.

Dear James:
|
|
I am using 60 ns Simm chips, I started out with 80 ns 1 meg. chips
|
|
and had the same problem that you described. I would load a disk file
|
|
and get a CRC error. With the 60 ns 4 meg simms I can run at 20 mhz ,but
|
|
will occasionaly get an error on a file copy, at 21 mhz the computer
|
|
will not boot. I have been using the 16.6 mhz speed as my default
|
|
setting and have had no problems. I would think a 70 ns Simm would be
|
|
the best to use if they are the priced less than the 60ns chips. I
|
|
don't think the memory chips are the problem with speeds in excess of
|
|
19 mhz.

Paul,
|
|
Thanks for that info. I just got back off a business trip to the east
|
|
coast. I also recently just got a copy of the protocals for X & Ymodem,
|
|
including BATCH mode.

Warren,
|
|
Back homme now. Mike Halland left me a msg on Delphi on how to make the
|
|
SHELL feature work in KTerm. Just as soon as I get it working, then I
|
|
can start to work on the next beta of OSKBINK. The next beta will fork a
|
|
process and run a user defined and supplied programm (BBS). Then I will
|
|
start on the rewrite of OSKBINK. I plan to try and get the curses
|
|
windowing feature to work. At work I have been playing with curses and
|
|
now understand it a lot better. Then all that will be needed to be doen
|
|
will be to get the mail routines running.

John,
|
|
I already posted in the OS9 echo to you but rereading this reminded
|
|
me of the Kterm problems. As you know the Ybatch upload wont work but
|
|
the Ybatch download will, provided you dont hit enter when setting up on
|
|
a RiBBS system. Just enter in the names of files wanted and select
|
|
protocol, dont hit enter then but go to the Kterm files window and
|
|
select receive. And Viola it will batch download fine.
|
|

Ok folks - math 1.7 should be on Ocean Beach BBS soon. (I just uploaded
|
|
it). Sorry about that - I don't use Basic, and C doesn't check the
|
|
carry flag. (What's that, you say? Check the Microware docs? Whatever
|
|
for?) Oh well. Maybe the third time is the charm.

George,
|
|
yes, your correct. OS/9 will file lock in that case. I do know that ME
|
|
will try and load the whole file at one time, thus may be a quirk in ME
|
|
and not in other text editors. Have you tried to use the editor that is
|
|
supplied from MW ?? I wondering if it is ME related or system wide
|
|
related.

Paul,
|
|
I think , I have already responed to this msg but want to add that you
|
|
can tell KTerm what port to use on the prompt line.
|
|
|
|
kterm /t3 &
|
|
|
|
I looked and noticed that I had missed adding 38400 baud to the dial
|
|
menu screen. It is now fixed. You can now select 38400 as the baud rate
|
|
and save it in the dail parameter.

AHHH, now it is much more clear. I got the specs on XYmodem just before
|
|
I went to VA. . From it I should be able to see t it will take to do
|
|
BATCH UPLOAD. Also got a msg from Mike Haaland about doing the shell
|
|
mode. Included some code too. Great guy.

I can't remember right off hand which EFFO_PD# the EPHEM was in. There was

to get in his extra lines for the InterNet connection.

hello all..
|
|
|
|
Sigh..yesterday, my MM/1's hard drive decided to stop letting me in.
|
|
Sysgo dies upon booting from floppy, stating "can't CHX to /h0/cmds" or
|
|
something similar, after printing "Error #246". OSK manuals say error #246
|
|
means "device not ready".
|
|
Is there any way I can convince the drive to let me in so I can at least
|
|
salvage some recent source code with dEd?
|
|
|
|
thanks in advance,
|
|

John,

I had used DED to change the default port within KTERM. This way I don't
|
|
have to mess with telling it to use /t3. It works. I used the search function
|
|
in DED to look for "/t" and changed it from there.

Russ,
|
|
Have you tried booting up with one of the original discs ? Looks
|
|
like you need to change your init module to stay on the floppy cmds
|
|
disc. Try the 3 meg boot disk, I recall that has a hard drive desc. on
|
|
it also.

I got the compiled palm files no problem but when your system died
|

sending the other file and just locked up I had to disconnect at this
|

end. I think you were trying UCC.lzh or something.
