Check the PROBLEMS file in the groff distribution.  It documents the major
difficulties that people have run into.  In fact, the first one describes
a GCC failure on DECstations and a work-around.

If this isn't the problem you are seeing, then try posting a more specific
question with more details.  Right now I'm just guessing at your problem.

You can also try posting to the gnu.groff.bug newsgroup.  James Clark,
the author of groff, is very helpful.

I have (had) the same problem, but with the VMS version.  It only took
1 time when I couldn't recover the results of a half-hour session to wipe
the thing off the disks, never to be seen again.

It needs a lot of work.  But it's kinda' cool.

I'm just acquiring the windows version, I hope it runs better.

Wish I could've helped...

I looked on gatekeeper.dec.com just a few moments ago.  The faq still

We were seeing this problem with both ln03R and DEClaser 2150. By
using lprps to debug things, it looks like the printers can get into
an initializing or other state where they trash all input silently.
Also, since the default ln03rof doesn't bother to read the info
presented by the laserprinters, nany sort of foolishness could be
going on on the printer side, and you would never know it.

I have been working with DEC support in an attempt to get PPD and
status messages for these beasts. I ahve also been working with the
author of lprps who has been very helpful with supplying patches to
allow lprps to work properly with the DEC family of printers.

Glad I could help Farhad. Anyway I think you made a mistake with
your LPS bootptab entry. We have been using the bp-2.1 bootp 
program for both the HP Laserjet printer and the LPS printservers.
Our bootptab entries are as follows:

You'll have to change the BSD to use the ULTRIX style of MCLGET.  It's not
a large change.  For MCLFREE, you'll have to use MFREE and release the mbuf

1) I successfully installed ULTRIX 4.2a on a DSP3105 as a system disk using
 the default RZxx -  it appears as 

	rz0 at sii0 slave 0 (RZxx) [ DEC
         _DSP3105S         T370 ]

2) I was supplied with the following disktab

dec2000|DEC2000|DEC DSP3105 Winchester:\

3) I believe the DSP3105 to be the OEM version of the RZ26 (the RZ26 is
not currently supported by Ultrix ??)                                          

 Incidentally, VMS 5.5 can use this DSP3105 as a system disk although the RZ26
 is not supported until VMS 5.5-2.

 I have not yet tested the disktab since I've only had the disk a few days.

 Hope this helps

DEC NSR 1.0:

If you label a tape with a 14 character volume name, nsrwatch will run the

As everybody else has mentioned, in general you want to do the full
bootstrap.  The warning message was added sometime earlier, and I
never deleted it (until 2.3 comes out that is).  I modified the x-*
file that gets merged into Makefile, to set the options used in the
first stage bootstrap to:

	cc -Wf,-XNg1500 -Olimit 3000 -O1

The -Wf,-XNg1500 option allows cp-parse.c (built from cp-parse.y) to
be compiled with the MIPS compiler (otherwise it gets an error about
too many case statements).  The -Olimit 3000 option allows you to
compile at -O2 without the MIPS compiler saying it's tables are too
small.  The MIPS 2.1 compiler that shipped with Ultrix should compile
all of 2.2.2 without complaint.

I just want to say "thank you" for letting me know that there is yet
another packet filter problem with Ultrix 4.3 BEFORE we upgrade and lose
the ability to use CAP *again* (happened from 4.0 to 4.1, from 4.1 to
4.2, and looks like it might again from 4.2 to 4.3).  I will just sit and
wait for some other poor slob to find out if the edge is in fact still
bleeding or not (twice is enough for me).  Not a good situation when
there aren't that many folks using CAP with direct Ethertalk Phase II,
but I'm tired of being an unknowing beta tester.

Perhaps DECs new management will get the message that LAT and DECnet
aren't the only protocols that their packet filters should support
because DEC isn't the only place we get our software from.  We rely
VERY heavily on CAP, Utah DUMP, and POP3 for supporting Macs, and have
to keep things running.  An OS upgrade is a bad thing to have to fear.
It forces you to live with other bugs, and makes life hell when you
switch over;  Really makes you regret having bought someone's hardware
sometimes.

Just my humble opinion.

(yes, I know about the -a flag to ps. This question has been bugging
me for months, though, so I'm finally asking.)

If I type "ps -x", I get a listing of all my processes. If I type 
"ps -ax", I get a listing of all the processes running on the machine.

How do I get a list of all of another user's processes?

The best way I know of for a normal user is "ps -aux | grep username".
This is very slow, especially when you've got 2500 users you're
fetching via yp.

A much faster way is to su to the other user, and then run "ps -x". Of
course, this requires being able to su to the other user, which is not
a general solution.

Is there any reason, in principle, why ps couldn't take a user ID or
username to do the ps for? Do any Unixes support this? Is there, by
any chance, a ps-type utility that does this under Ultrix?

Put '/dev/rz1b::sw:::::' into your /etc/fstab file and remove the rz2a
entry.

What's happening here is that your kernel is configured to use the 
rz2a as the primary swap partition.  It starts getting used right from the 
startup sequence.  rz1b is a secondary partition, but since it isn't in
the fstab the 'swapon -a' never tries to mount it.

You should also avoid putting a swap partition on the 'a' partition of
a disk.  It will destroy your partition information for that disk.

Does your shell script look like this?

xwd is fast enough.  Rather than piping stdout, dump it into a temporary

can get on with your work:

Originator: helgeha@maud.ifi.uio.no

  I'm trying to connect a HP Laserjet IIIsi to a Decstation 5000/200
running Ultrix V4.2.  We've bought an Ethernet card from
Hewlett-Packard called "C2059T HP JetDirect Card for Unix".  This
card supports HP-UX and SunOS 4.1.1, but not Ultrix.  There are some
installation scripts that came with the card, but they are for
installing the card on machines running either HP-UX or SunOS 4.1.1.
I've tried to install according to SunOS and make the neccesary
changes for Ultrix.  I'm stuck with an entry in /etc/bootptab that the
script wants to add.  The formats of /etc/bootptab for SunOS 4.1.1 and
Ultrix V4.2 are quite different, and I can't see that there is a
straightforward mapping between the two formats.

  My question is: has anyone done what I'm trying to do?  I'd be
grateful for any hints or tips!

I think this has been discussed before, but for some reason or another, I
didn't pay attention, and now I have a problem...

I have some modems connected to a DECstation 5000/200 via its serial ports. 
If I log in from home and attempt downloads, I get quite a few lost
characters, which is ruining throughput. I have both 2400 and V.32 modems,
and get the same results regardless of what is used. I can connect to the
same system via modems on a terminal server, and no get this problem. I get
characters dropped with both ZModem and Kermit, and I assume the UUCP
transfers which go on with those modems also must experience drops.
Something in the way the DECstation/modem combination is configured is
dropping the character.

I have RTS/CTS enabled on the modem, and the /etc/ttys entry has the modem
option enabled. Is there something else I need to configure in order to get
better throughput?

More than two are supported.  I've used as many as 5 or 6 totaling
around 2 GB.  It takes quite a while to add that much page/swap
though.  I don't believe it is the intention of the documentation
to suggest that only two are supported.  If you could either:

1.  Fill out the Reader's Comment page and mail it to the address
    listed.  You'll have to pay the postage though.

2.  Send me appropriate text that I can transcribe to a Reader's
    Comment page.

Maybe a future version of the documentation will clarify this.

If you're spreading the swap space between that many disks for
improved performance, you may see some advantage in getting a
2nd or 3rd SCSI controller, if you have a DECstation 5000 and
extra slots.

	Hello Netters,
I have big problems with porting pure BSD slip driver
under Ultrix 3.0.
I discovered that definitions of MCLGET under BSD and Ultrix are
different and MCLFREE is absent under Ultrix.
If anybody met this problem or knows how to deal with it
please HELP !

				Thank You in advance, Alexander.

P.S.: Sorry, but RTFMs don't help, I simply have no FMs other then man.

Hello :


      I get a C program, it runs on a SUN3 but not on a SUN4.
I need to port it. It will be helpful to know the diferencess
(byte ordering,word size,word alignment,byte addressing,etc.)
between SUN3 and SUN4. 

      Please answer me as soon as posible. Thanks in advance.
