Subject: MS Windows 3.1 via SCO UNIX ?
Organization: Tidewater UNIX Users Group
Date: Fri, 4 Sep 1992 00:21:21 GMT


      My company department has a problem. We are currently running an
internal software package that was designed to run under "MS Windows 2.1".
The computers that we are running this on are 386 clones running
SCO Unix v3.2 and the VPIX (DOS emulator).

      The problem is, the department in charge of the internal software
package is releasing a new version of it and is not going to support the
old one any more. :-( The new version will only run on "MS Windows 3.1"
which does not work under VPIX. Open Desk Top (ODT) does supply a DOS
shell but the price at this time of ODT is prohibitively high for my
department.

      Does anybody have any suggestions on how to get around this
dilemma? One idea we had was to reformat the hard disk and to set up one
partition for DOS and another for UNIX. But, we don't know if it is
possible to switch between the two operating systems. Another idea would
be to find some other company that supplies DOS shell software, like
ODT's version, as a separate software package that can be bought for a
little amount of money.

                    Zenith 386

That 'crap' is probably the best thing to come down the pipe in a
loooooong time for those of us with a problem dealing with high speed
modems on machines that need some help. It is probably the widest used
piece of work in such sites and as such new updates are very welcome.

This is one of those cases where most of us will call it an ok thing to
do. If you needed a FAS driver I think you would agree. Considering the
tone of your message you don't need one and could care less. Sorry. It
doesn't happen every day. 

Lighten up son.

There is no need for all this. If I recall correctly, you can select

a secondary controller. Then, when installing the second disk with 
sysadm, you can select that controller. Anyway it is all documented

Hi,

Does anyone know how I can tell Xman to look for groff and NOT nroff on my
Interactive UNIX 3.0? Interactive, in there infinite wisdom doesn't offer
the Documentor's Workbench, so I've installed groff-1.05. However, Xman
doesn't look for groff, but nroff. Is there a way around this? I've already
groffed and/or decompressed all my man pages for Xman to use, but I would     
rather have the man pages still left in pre-groffed format (i.e., with the
macros). Better yet how about modifying Xman to decompress and THEN groff
the man pages? If anyone has any suggestions, please respond by e-mail.

I have Consensys SVR4 purchased in January.  It seems to be very standard
and works quite well.  I have had minor problems, but nothing major.  It
seems to be a very standard port because we also have an NCR box at work
and it seems to be almost identical with sysadm and functionality.

The minor problems I've had are like 'history | grep something' hangs.
You can redirect history to a file, but don't pipe it.

On rare occasion, my XServer seems to hang.  This is rare, but when it
happens it's very bad news.  It will just be innactive for a while, then
goes away and I'm left with no prompt from the system.  I can exit and
come back in as root and then I need to reboot my system (gracefully).

Other than that it works great and I'm very content with it.  Consensys
has had a bad reputation for support but I think they are trying to
improve this.  I haven't yet called myself because I haven't really needed
to (yet).  I posted a question once about wanting to know about multiple
com ports other than com1 and com2 and they FAXed me a solution.  I think
most of the problems may have been with their boards and the drivers using
it than with just the OS (my own observatoin).

I have been hearing a lot of good things about DELL recently and you may
want to look into this.  I don't know what the price is thought.  It
certainly sounds well worth investigating.

Happy hunting :-)

With Issue 2.1 of Dell Unix, I was never able to 

1) successfully use hardware flow control with getty/uugetty (and before
   anyone mentions it, I didn't use ttymon because it didn't work when I
   originally set this up under Issue 2.0)

2) push the DTE speed higher than 19200

with the stock asy driver. Installing SAS allowed me to use hardware flow
control and push the DTE to 38400. I was so pleased with the results, I 
left it that way when I installed Issue 2.2.

To quote our friend Larry (but out of context) ...

Sure, Dell ships all kinds of pubnix stuff with their distribution.

However, as anyone who is even moderately active in the USENET 
world knows, things change pretty quickly ... if you want to run 
the "latest and greatest", you're going to have to go out and
scrounge for the latest sources anyway, even though you've already
paid for them (hidden cost) when you bougt Dell!

Yes there is. Reinstall the first disk again. Reconfiure HPDD with the
controller you have and 2 drives. Reboot the machine with new kernel.
Use the mount command and mount /dev/dsk/c0t1s1 to mount the first
partition of 2nd disk.

Or get the X8514 X server for the ATI Ultra which is available for
anonymous ftp from dell1.dell.com.

You could read the makefile that you have and just type in the commands,
but since they undoubtedly involve compilation, and you say you don't have
the Development kit, not having the make program is the least of your
problem: you just can't make use of ANY source code without it.

The make program is an automation of the steps required to accomplish a
goal. In the case of source code, the goal is to compile binaries. But
you have no compiler, so...

You can use ESIX 5.3.2 D with the drivers delivered with the system.
ESIX thinks that you use ESDI drives, but that does not matter.
I have a 519MB Conner and a 200MB Seagate ST1239A running. No problems.
