[mod.computers.vax] XOFF problem continues.

In regards to Mike Morse and the XOFF problem:

   We have a MicroVax II with 5MB of memory and a DHV11-M (8 ports).
Just recently (we just got our machine), one of our port lines refused
to accept characters, or it would accept one or two and then send an
XOFF.  The other lines were ok.  The problem only cleared itself up
when we rebooted the system from a cold (power-on) start.  I don't know
what the problem is yet, but it seems to be directly related to the DHV11-M
board.  Diagnostics failed to show anything.  I think DEC should be informed
that the problem is more widespread.
