I'm running Microport's Sys V/386 ver 3.0e with DOSMERGE. I've been playing around with the stuff that came in the Microport BBS disks as well as some of the things John Plocher posted not too long ago and have a couple questions. In trying to get the gfx demo stuff to work, I noticed that the gfx module was commented out in system.std with an *. When I tried to rebuild the kernel with gfx, I got the following: > running config... > compiling conf.c... > compiling space.c and stubs.c modules... > linking the kernel... > undefined first referenced > symbol in file > kd_sleep modules/gfx/gfx.o > kd_outb21 modules/gfx/gfx.o > kd_opendev modules/gfx/gfx.o > kd_deledev modules/gfx/gfx.o > kd_wakeup modules/gfx/gfx.o > ld fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to /etc/atconf/kernels/unix.std.18 Remembering that the BBS files included a file called 386-fix/config purported to "fix for 50 module limit", I counted the number of modules and, sure enough, had 51. I copied 386-fix/config in as /etc/config and tried mkunix. Got the same result. Thinking that maybe the fixed config wasn't really fixed, I commented out the weitek module. Got the same result. Any ideas? Anyone got a config which is not limited in the number of modules it can handle? In a different vein, I have a logitech bus mouse and have been trying to get the mouse driver John posted a while ago working. I remember deleting a /dev/mouse some time ago. What are the proper major and minor device types for the /dev/mouse? Has anyone got it working? Does it depend on gfx? Again in a different area, I read with quite a bit of interest, Mike Barnes' article <292@kc5n.UUCP> of 4 Jun 89 in which he describes his mods to use IRQ 9 through IRQ 15 for serial port control under Jim Murray's asy.o. Mike's implementation was, however, on a V/AT 2.3 system and involved patching the table 'slavtbl', whatever that is. Is there something analogous for V/386? If so, where is it and what's it called? Thanks for any light you shed on these. *************************************************************************** *Rock Kent rock@rancho.uucp POB 8964, Rancho Sante Fe, CA. 92067* ***************************************************************************

You may be able to give Peter a call at uport and get Merge 1.1.3. Mention that that you want to to graphics with gfx and require the newer Merge. Ken Chapin
