If the environment variable `cnverr' is set and exported to "yes" or "YES", and
either IOSTAT or ERR is specified in the I/O statement, conversion errors will
cause the IOSTAT  variable to be set, the ERR label to be branched to, and 
error messages to be suppressed. 

That's documented and the text above taken almost literally from InfoExplorer.

For the IBM RS/6000 model 350 the ethernet controller is built into the planner
board.  There is a riser card that has the bnc and dix connector on it.  There is
also another riser card that has the twisted pair jack on it.  When you want to
switch between bnc and dix you have to move a set of jumpers on the riser card.
When the system is re-started AIX determines the jumper setting on this card
and sets the ethernet configuration according to those jumpers.  That is the reason
that you cannot change this setting thru smit.
BYW, you will need to get PTF U410209, this has a new device driver for the
integrated ethernet.
Regards.

Hmmm... neither worked for me.

I have -DUTMP -DWTMP -DHAS_UTMP_UT_HOST on the compiler command lines

I know sys/poll.h in 3.1 was munged, and the Suns we have here don't handle

There has been some traffic in the newsgroup comp.client-server dealing

Jeff, there aren't, to the best of my knowledge, any newgroups other than
the two you've found, comp.unix.osf.osf1 and comp.unix.osf.misc.  I'm
seeing relatively little traffic to date in these groups so I suspect

Summary: How to become controlling tty
Keywords: terminals
Date: 22 Dec 92 09:14:37 GMT
Organization: Department of Computer Science, Warwick University, England

Hello,
	Why does the 'script' command allocate itself a new controlling tty
and yet no other 'standard' (eg emacs, fep) program seem able to? I've read
the manuals for other machines and written programs to grab themselves a new
tty by dissociating, becoming a session leader, and opening a terminal that
current has no controlling process.

	This works on all machines I've tried except an Alpha running OSF1. By
debugging script a bit I figured out it opens (read-write) /dev/ptm. This is
not in any of the online manuals as far as I can see, and neither is how to
become the controlling process. Can anyone offer assistance here?

	Cheers,

		James

Look at pty_master(3) and pty_slave(3).  You want to do something like
this, I believe:
	 int m, s;
	 struct winsize win;
	 struct termios tt;

	 m = pty_master();
	 tcgetattr(0, &tt);
	 ioctl(0, TIOCGWINSZ, &win);
	 if (fork == 0) {
	     s = pty_slave(m);
	     tcsetattr(s, TCSANOW, &win);
	     ioctl(s, TIOCSWINSZ, &win);
	     setsid();
	     ioctl(s, TIOCSTTY, 0);
	}
There is a nice section on controlling terminals in tty(7).

Summary: Archive QIC-150 with AT cont. not recognised at boot. ?

Recently  I've installed 386bsd.01 on my machine without any major
problems. Configuration 486DX33 with 512k cache, OPTi, AMI, (generic 
no name board), video with Trident 8900C, SMC fdd controller and IDE,
noname I/O, noname internal 2400 modem and WD caviar 2170 hdd. All seems to
work fine except for the tape drive I've borrowed from work.

It is an Archive QIC 150 tape drive with an AT controller ( not SCSI ).
Tape works fine under DOS ( on my machine ). I've set all the jumpers
on the controller to the values found in INSTALLATION script 
	-0x300,IRQ5,DRQ/DACQ1.
The drive is not recognised during boot and not accessible later.

Am I doing something wrong or is something else at fault.

Thanks in advance for all replies and pointers.

like hell. the new driver's best speed running ftp was 621 kb/sec
on a ne2000 clone. the sustained speed (measured over 20 minutes)
was 456kb/sec. this is on a UMC 486/50 motherboard running a 10mhz
isa bus.

note that the old driver's performance on my hardware is consistent
with thomas' results above.

also, try nfs read performance at 620 kb/sec

I'm investigating why your performance was so much worse.
but 100k/sec is not even close to acceptable on unloaded ether.

Hello Julian and all netter,
I appreciate your folloing post.

  >>The problem is that the aha1742 does not correctly emulate 1542 
  >>intructions 3 and 4 (used in the 'as' driver)

I am feeling I should read the technical documentations of the adapter.

  >>the new disks are using the NEW scsi drivers.
  >>the devices are called sd0[abcdefgh]
  >>rather than as0[abcdefgh], though as0 and sd0 are the same device

Oh! I didn't know this. Anyway, by using /dev/as0? devices, I have got 
my HD + the adapter worked. Thanks. I'll make /dev/sd0?.

I report my New mistake this time,
Even I have finished to install 386bsd once, I had a trouble again.

After an installation, I re-formatted my HD by DOS/fdisk to change 
the disklabel. Since this re-formatting, I couldn't put a disklabel
to the HD again. The disktab entry was something wrong.

Finally I have found the reason.
My disktab entry reflected the HD's physical geometry first. 
However, an aha1742a adapter has the track number translation 
to avoid DOS 1024 track limitation.

After the re-formatting, the HD's partition table was modified 
by a logical geometry table (63 heads, 32 sectors/track). 
Because of this, I had to generate a new disktab entry which 
reflect the logical(=translated) geometry. 

This is my careless mistake, but probably someone may have similar
troubles. Be carefull, new 1740 users.

   I would like to investigate the possibilities of using 386bsd as a
router to replace my KA9Q box.  When I looked through the FAQ (question
2.47) it mentions that it is possible but it is "hard wired off".  How
does one, hard wire it back on?

Hi,
I am trying to port Gnuplot-3.2 to 386BSD/XFree86-1.1.
Gnuplot is original distribution, 386bsd + pl58 + XFree
(original distribution without Holger's codrive ) on 8Mb
486, 33 MHz, compiler original distribution gcc. 
It compiles with some warning messages about incompatible
pointers types. With -traditional it compliles without
any warnings. I use makefile.unx with references to 
lplot commented out with "make x11".  
The initial banner appears but any attempt to plot 
anything either to the screen or to the postscript
file end ups with floating point exception and core dump.
Did anybody  had similar problems? 

Any help would be appreciated.
