Has anyone gotten mpss to work on a System V/386 3.2 machine? We keep having problems mostly with main.c and the ioctl call. I recall someone posting that they have a SysV substitute for BSD's FIONREAD and TIOCNOTTY. Please help (email please unless someone else wants to know also). Thanks, Chris Chimelis chris chimelis chimelis@refuge.colorado.edu ...ncar!boulder!refuge!chimelis chimelis%boulder@colorado.bitnet

Please help (email please unless > someone else wants to know also). You read my mind.. I was just sitting here wondering the same thing. The game looks like it has potential.. but it's virtually useless in its present state in a UNIX V environment. A few months ago, someone posted the "conversion" as part of the bug fixes, but after spending about an hour typing the changes in (he didn't set it up for patch) I compiled it, and zilch. My Star Ship just sits there getting blasted. None of the keys to manuver, fire weapons, etc. work. If anyone has something that they are USING currently which is working on UNIX V, please post it. If nothing is posted within a week, well.. rm *.c *.o works great on any UNIX system. :+)@. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul Wolfson "Goyk!" att!ihuxy!wolfer

We've patched and repatched. We even tried to find substitutes to those commands, but no dice. It wouldn't even pull up with a screen. We're also trying to get it to recognise the AT386-M definition in the termcap file (termlib didn't do any good). Any luck at adding new terminal definitions? The description was pretty cryptic. Anyway, we're trying to amass a library of games so if you have any more, let me know (email is a better place). We have a few, but not many. Anyway, if you come up with a fix, let me know and I'll really appreciate it. Thanks alot.
