[mod.computers.vax] Virtual terminals

salex@RICE.EDU (Scott Alexander) (11/25/85)

For reasons that I am too embarrassed to admit in public, I would like to
have 16 virtual terminals instead of the default number.  Is there some
way to do this?

Thanks,

        o  Set sysgen parameter tty_timeout to proper value

        o  In systartup.com do

                $ mc sysgen
                connect vta0/noadapter/driver=ttdriver

        o  Set terminal/perm/disconnect

        o  Logout and login again. That's all.
