I have 5 megB of memory in my old Compaq 386/20 which is no longer making. I would like to increase to 8 megB for X-windows (Xsight). My dealer won't co-operate with me because he just want me to buy another computer. I am told that it is better to use all system memory in one 32 bits slot card. I am running Xenix 386 2.3.2 (I am working on upgrading to Unix 3.2). Can you please help me on locating dealer or distributor? It would be nice to include email address or fax number since I am totally deaf. Thanks in advance, Willy p.s. I am writing this for my own to use Xenix/computer at home, not for my corporation. Believe me that at work I am running DECwindow in 25 megB memory computer! also uunet!nwnexus!seaeast!willyp

Since I've purchased AKCS from Karl at ddsw1 - I've received first class support - even including weekend calls - and twice he has called into my machine to make sure everything was running smooth. BTW - do you have that new Fidonet package available for pickup via PEP? I'm about to install UFgate under VP/ix so the local Fidonet guys can get a taste of Usenet - Larry

I used to run ufgate for over two years but this is no HoneyBanDer stuffs at all. YOu can not run over 2400 bauds at all and Pozar is working on this porting from gnuucp file so that this would run on fast modem. You can try ufgate with only 2400 bauds or less... For more information, I suggest to read UFGATE echomail. If you have specific question to me only, email to me since I don't read every xenix message. willy

While the 386/20 is no longer being made, the memory modules for the /20 are the same as those used in the 386/25, which is still being made. ANY Compaq dealer can sell you memory for the /25, which is identical to the memory used in the /20. The 4-Mb memory module for both the /20 and /25 is Compaq part number 133132-001.
