[comp.os.minix] How to add a terminal on PC minix 1.5.10?

Hi mininers:

	Now I'm trying to add a terminal on a PC-286 using MINIX-PC 1.5.10. But it
always failed.

	I've set the terminal to 1200 baud, 8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit. And it is
connected on com2. So I type:

	# stty 1200 8 < /dev/tty2 (on superuser account)

	And I try to test the terminal. So I type:

	# cat /etc/passwd > /dev/tty2

	There is no response at all!

	I've check RS-232 cable connection. No matter I exchange pin2 and pin3 or not,
there is no response.

	The terminal which I use is VT-100 compatable.

	Any idea or any suggestions?

	Thanks!

	Chen Chi-Jung. (r78128@cs.ee.ntu.edu.tw)
