I've been using 3.51 since about Jan 26, 1990. I've had generally good luck with it; no problems with printers. I have an HP Deskjet, which I use though the laserjet lp model. I didn't change anything from 3.51 to 3.51m and it still prints bitmaps and text just fine. Now that we have that out of the way. I am having problems with dropped characters on tty000 on input. I am using the HDB BNU programs uucico and cu. I have a trailblazer plus modem that has the buad rate set to 19200. It looks like about 15 characters get lost each time the tty dirver issues an xoff. I do indeed have the S58 flow control register set to 3 in both the local and remote modems and also have hfc disabled. I tried switching back to the 3.51 kernel with everything else held constant, and the dropped characters ceased. Is there some tunable parameter or something that I should know about that can fix 3.51m? I like the nice features like the built in keyfix and metermaid display.
