To all Bell Tech/Intel Unix 3.2 users, I can report that the FAS async driver appears to work fine on these systems. Follow the instructions for ISC UNIX -- they work as-is, at least for me. Has anyone with an old DigiBoard 8 eight-port dumb async board been able to get it to work with the FAS driver and NS16550A UARTs? I send one character then the port hangs -- it's apparently not generating interrupts or at least not the one I think it's generating. DigiBoard said they'd had to rework the card to support the '550A, but I was thinking that might just have involved their special one-bit-per-port-state-of-the-UARTs status byte, which FAS ignores anyway. When are the prices on these @$#%&*(%ing smart boards going to come down? -- -- uunet!sugar!karl -- Usenet access: (713) 438-5018
