Subject: potential Coh buyer - tell me your thoughts
Organization: University of Colorado, Boulder
Date: Thu, 1 Oct 1992 23:41:25 GMT

Well, I have a 286 AT and I've been thinking about Coherent for quite a while.
I started reading the newsgroup last year, but things happened, and I dropped
out of all my newsgroups, and when I came back I purged most of them from my
.newsrc, thought I've always had the urge to have my own REAL multi-user,
multi-tasking machine at home.  (By REAL, I mean one running UNIX or a very
good clone).  As everyone's main problem, I don't have the mega-monies to 
shell out for SCO or any of the big boys...  Coherent seemed pretty groovy
when I first heard about it, and itstill seems like the best I can afford.

What I would like to hear from everyone are the DOWN sides of buying Coherent.
From what I've read in the last ~183 messages, Coherent versions stand at 3.2
for ye olde '286s and 4.0.[0/1] for thoust '386s.  I know that 4.0.x is 
almost binary compatible with SV and other stuffs, so I'm a little bummed 
that I'll only be able to get a version with software that I have to dig for.

Anyway, send me your horror stories, or shattered dreams, and possibly your
admirations and/or excellent points of the OS to convince me to buy it and
join your clan :)   It'll be completely a hobby, and I'd like to plop a copy
of Waffle on it or something and have a cute little BBS (maybe multi-line if
I can con my mom into letting me borrow her phone line during the wee hours
of normal human's days).

BTW, I'm 17 and a senior in high school.  I'm not going to go into detail why
the Organization line above says CU, and why it seems I have an Asian name,
but from what I've learned on my unguided tours of the Internet and the in-
sides of the many machines I have seen, I know I love UNIX and my MS-DOS
machine is only used as a terminal now.

So, before I go on babbling again, convince me to buy Coherent.

Comeau C++ 3.0 With Templates supports COHERENT 4.0.
Unfortunately it has not yet shipped as we are awaiting a patch

Is it available on raven yet?  If so, what is the file name?  I have not yet
seen it in either the sources directory or incoming directory.

Just to calm any fears you may have, much of the development for COHERENT
386 was done using non-Intel processors including the AMD 386/40.  One of
the guys here saw a humorous ad which had something like the "Intel Inside"
logo with a round red circle and a slash through it.  I'm glad to see that
computer advertisements can still show a sense of humor, although Intel's
lawyers probably had a field day with this one, IMHO ;-)

Hmm, i am going to use the ZYKSEL U-1496 E modem, has anyone have experience
with Coh. 4.0 and this modem ?? (expecially when using DTE speed above 19.2 Kbps

I am going to use UUCP with this configuration.

Try
curdate=`date`
echo $curdate

As I understand quotes (but don't quote me!) the ` ` mean execute whatever 
is inside and leave the standard output from the command at that point on the
command line.  Anything inside ' ' is taken literally and all special
characters are ignored by the shell. The " " are not quite so restrictive
as ' ' and there are three characters in particular that are not ignored,
$, ` `  and  \ . I'm not familiar enough with exec to comment. Perhaps
someone else will explain. 

Cheers,

David

please no.
lets see in oh about the 1989 nov -dec issue of unix review is the psudo 
code for an unerase function. but more importantly a uucp address was 
given for the full code. i was never (in the past year or so) ever to find 
the path to the code. i think i posted this one time (maybe on an admin group)
i'll hunt down the article and repost here (please someone find this code for 
me, i'd really like to see it) i think (oh no here he goes thinking again;-) 
it kept a db of the inodes used and what file they went to and only released 
then for use after a certain condition was true.

I am a novice with Taylor uucp, but there are several limits in the 
documentation that might affect this: the maximum number of xqt processes
available, the minimum disk space required after a transfer, etc.  
Check those (uuchk will tell you what the parameters are on your 
system and the remote, if it is Taylor) first.

cheepest and easiest is with a printer sharing device 4 ports in 1 out.
jetlink express, grabber (serial-parellel converter for the mac),

Yes it does.  In fact, very well.  If you have 386 with AMI bios, and use
the memory manager provided with DRDOS (EMM386, I think), then you would
have to do a cold-boot when you switch from Coherent to DRDOS as well.  I
noticed that going from Coherent to DRDOS without the cold boot may occasionaly
cause the memory manager to barf.  And, of course, you should always use
cold boot when going from DRDOS (or any DOS) to Coherent.

Correction: I turned setuid/setgid bits on when I saw the root-owned

You're right, but it's a bit of hassle to change ownership of directories
for a non-privileged user.

tin uses pairs of setuid/setgid. On Coherent executing setuid/setgid simply
fails - I'm trying to find out how setuid()/setgid() are implemented on
Coherent.

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get unzip50 to compile?
Here are the error codes I get when I try.

root: make coherent
cc -c -O   unzip.c
cc -c -O   envargs.c
cc -c -O   explode.c
cc -c -O   extract.c
cc -c -O   file_io.c
131: file_io.c: identifier "O_BINARY" is not defined
303: file_io.c: identifier "O_BINARY" is not defined
916: file_io.c: member "tm_isdst" is not defined
make:   exited with status 256
root: exit

I tried to remove the 'O_BINARY' & 'tm_isdst' statements but then the
code doesnt unzip anything.

Thanks, terry

No, at the moment not. 19.2 Kbps is the maximum.

been awhile since i was on this list (several months), but i was wondering
if someone could update me on the status of a couple of items:

is there a coherent for ibm ps/2's yet?

will coherent boot from the os/2 boot manager yet?
is this in the works, or is it never gonna boot from os/2 boot manager?

thanks,
tonto
