Message-ID: <Ds94yr.J4q.E.fourthgen@fourthgen.fourthgen.com> Date: Fri, 31 May 1996 04:11:15 GMT Lines: 17 I have a Digiboard PC/8e installed and users complain of weird terminal activity occasionally happening. One common symptom is a run away prompt, like the <Enter> is being held down. Other complaints of sporatic screen redraws, line drops etc are common. I have four standard serial ports plus this Digiboard and there are no complaints if the users dial in on the other regular serial lines. There are also complaints about general performance. File transfers are slower etc. The phone company assures me that lines are all clean (which I take with a grain of salt). Has anyone else noticed these sort of problems? Do I not have something setup properly or does this sound like a hardware conflict? -- Tom Greenwalt (Tom-Too) (F.O.E.) tomg@fourthgen.com 7300 Nicollet Ave. S. mishima@winternet.com Richfield, MN 55423-3121 tomg@mishima.mn.org * In doing good, avoid notoriety; in doing evil, avoid self-awareness. *
