[comp.unix.xenix] dvi drivers for XENIXV/386 2.3.1

terry@eecea.eece.ksu.edu (Terry Hull) (02/10/89)

I have version 2.10 of Nelson Beebe's dvi drivers for the HP
LaserJet+, and am having difficulty getting them to run.  The first
problem I had waswhenever a routine called strid2() was called, it
would dump core.  I checked with sdb and whenever I tried to single
step into strid2, I would get a memory fault.  To make a long story
short, I bypassed this routines by hard coding some values.  Now
whenever I call one of the string functions in the C library, it dumps
core.  Does anyone have patches to get this routine to work under
XENIX, or am I just boing stupid?  Thanks for you help. 

Incidentally, I can keep the strid2 routine from dumping core by
including it in dvifile.h which is the only routine that calls strid2.
