[net.micro.trs-80] UUCP lockes my tty line on my 6000 / help!?!?!

george2@chinet.UUCP (George slone) (04/07/86)

I have a big problem with my Tandy 6000 hd. When ever I have it UUCP to a
remote system, and the remote is busy or does not answer UUCP then locks
the tty line. Now I am not talking the LCK* files UUCP uses or the STST*
files, it really locks the tty! I cant use cu(1) (cu(C) if you have help
and not man(1).. <-- Dumb move Tandy  :-) or kermit.. and the only way to
get the tty back to work is to shutdown the system!!! here are this things
I have did so far:

1. disable the tty and enable it
2. chmod 777 the tty
3. rm the /dev/ttyXX and use mknod to re make it
4. fsck'ed the system ?idea from other user :-)?

and not one of them seemed to work. here is the hardware list:

Tandy 6000 hd
512k mem
Hayes smart modem
Prometheus pro modem (Hayes clone)

Thanks for any help in this matter
