[comp.sys.laptops] Problem with xterm on Atari Portfolio

tcamp@uncecs.edu (Ted A. Campbell) (02/14/91)

I'm using an Atari Portfolio with the updt107.com system update.
When I exit from xterm (the Atari Portfolio xmodem program), the
system sometimes hangs up, in fact, sometimes has to be cold booted,
resulting in a loss of all on the RAM drive. Has anyone else experienced
this with xterm? Any suggested solutions?

I have not had any such problem (if I had, I would have fixed it since
I wrote XTerm in the first place).  However, some questions that come
to mind are: which version of XTerm are you running and which version of
the Portfolio ROMs are you running (type VER at the DOS prompt).  Finally,
do you have any other TSR or DRIVERs installed?
