[comp.os.minix] Minix 1.3 Questions

jeff@questar.QUESTAR.MN.ORG (Jeff Holmes) (03/15/89)

	Hi,

	I was wondering if I could get some help with some
	questions? Well here goes...

	1. Has anyone ever gotten the message...

		"Can't get character: I/O error"

	   ...from minix-kermit?  I had kermit running but then
	   last night it wouldn't connect.  I rebuilt my bootblock,
	   deleted tty1 and remade it and even reloaded kermit from
	   my archives. No luck. (I could connect using MSDOS kermit
	   so it's not my phone lines).
	
	2. Could someone give me the positioning of regexp.s and 
	   regsub.s in their libc.a using ast's library ordering
	   as reference? 

	3. Does anyone have a prtso.s that they could mail me?
	   (Or a prtso.c if that's how it starts out)

	4. How does LINEWRAP being SET or NOT SET in kernel/console.c
	   affect the system. What attributes does it set?

	Thanks for any help you can give me.

I will soon be trying to build a Minix 1.3 kernel, and I hope someone
can answer my (hopefully trivial) questions:
1) Will Minix 1.3 support login through a modem?
2) Will Minix 1.3 support login on multiple serial ports?
3) Is there a line printer scheduler?

Thanks.
