(Bugs?) Has anyone in netland had any problems with the IBM Professional Graphics interfering with serial communications? I have been using my PC/AT for months and often as a terminal to various mainframes. I have used both the IBM 3101 terminal emulation package (works poorly on the AT), and KERMIT 2.27's H19 terminal emulator. I used to use the serial port connected to the Sytek LocalNet at speeds from 1200 to 9600 baud, but since the addition of the Professional Graphics I cannot handle speeds greater than 1200. I can't think of what is causing the problem? Are the graphics boards driven at such a higher interupt priority that the serial port looses out? Occasionally I have trouble even at 1200 baud. The only other change to the system is the inclusion of the Graphic Designer Toolkit device drivers in the CONFIG.SYS file.
