Here is a problem for an Xpert...
We are running X11R4 compiled with gcc 1.37.1 on a a micro-Vax II gpx (qdss)
running Ultrix 3.1 and are experiencing problems with xterm when using
our modems via "tip". The problem is that when the modem uses even
parity (and it usually does), xterm cannot correctly print those characters
with their most significant bits set. When connected to the remote
system via "tip" on an xterm, the keyboard appears to generate the correct
sequence to send and the remote host appears to respond to the request, but
xterm garbles both my input and the remote output on the display.
Does anyone know of a way to fix this problem?
I have tried using the same type of modem on a SUN 3/160 running X11R4 and
I did not experience any problems.
Thanks for any help you can offer,
