I have SCO Xenix 2.3.3 and the problem that xnx128 is supposed to fix. When I try to install it, it says only for 2.3.{0,1,2}.

I asked SCO about this and they said that was fine. After I installed it, I still get "garbage on line" messages... I don't know if the fix doesn't work or if you really need 2.3.{0-2} for it to work. Bill Spiesman spiesman@amarna.gsfc.nasa.gov

If you upgraded your system to 2.3.3 by installing VP/ix or Xsight, then you should install xnx155b to obtain this fix. (If it wasn't for the fact that xnx128 installs on '286 Xenix, and on 2.2.3 systems, it would have been discontinued by now.) If you have installed xnx155, and you still have the 'garbage or loose cable' problem, then installing xnx128 won't help you. As a side note: the 'garbage or loose cable' problem is usually due to one of two things: either your modem is set to send "RING" when ringing, or you have an unusable internal modem. I've seen enough problems with internal modems - especially the cheap clones - to develop a major prejudice against them: I always suggest using an external modem if at all possible. - Paul Zola Software Support Engineer paulz@sco.COM We only know in theory what we are doing. - Kate Bush DISCLAIMER: I speak for myself, and not for SCO.
