<bill@cosi.uucp> recently wrote about problems he was having
using the serial port from inside Merge/386 under Microport SysV/386.
Merge/386 is not alone in this behavior. The VP/ix based SunView
DOS Windows system has similar problems on Sun's 386i boxes. This
makes sense if you consider that DOS emulators depend upon Unix for
doing things like serial communications. It would seem to me that
the DOS way of doing things does not map well onto Unix.
I'd be interested in hearing of anybody else using VP/ix has
problems with data commuications.
