Bug? Message-ID: <12829@chalmers.se> Date: 19 Jul 92 18:01:19 GMT Sender: news@chalmers.se Organization: Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg Sweden Lines: 17 I just noticed when connected remote via the com ports that if I did a scroll lock everything in the system would be halted. I was using screen and was compiling in another virtual terminal. This must surely be a bug, right? Or is it a feature? pao PS! Even though the scheduler keeps giving processes negative priority I haven't experienced one lost character yet when doing the heavy stuff in the background. (in 2400bps) Although zmodem downloads seems to be asking to much really of the system. Many thanks to those who fixed the coms drivers! -- -------------------------------Andrew Olausson-------------------------------- --------------------------Unemployed Unix Specialist-------------------------- ------------------------------pao@cd.chalmers.se------------------------------ -------------------------------pa-ola@proxxi.se-------------------------------
