In the past few months, Digital has announced several upgrade programs to
Alpha. If you are about to purchase new machines, or if you recently purchased
any machines, Digital can prepare a quotation for upgrade to Alpha based
hardware. The quotes should be good for some time (more than a year if memory
serves me.)

Problems with DEC-GKS and DEC-WINDOWS workstation


I am writing a program using the DEC-GKS library.
I use the following software versions:

FORTRAN binding: creation date 7-OCT-1991
DEC-GKS: version 4.2-4, creation date 7-OCT-1991.

I want to use the DECWindows workstation (type 211) for output.


On DECstations with the DEC window manager everything works fine.

When I activate the output workstation with GACWK, a window
opens automatically and my picture appears.

But with other window managers (eg. twm or the NCD window manager)
only a icon appears, and I have to open the window manually with the
mouse.

I tried to use the Escape function POP WINDOW, but it only worked
with the original DEC window manager.


What's the matter with the DECWindows workstation? Is there a bug in
DEG-GKS? Or should I use Xlib functions to open the graphics window?


I would like to use GKS, because my programm should work with many
output devices, eg. TEK4014.
We have several X-Window terminals, so the program should work with
other terminals than DECstatations as well.


Thanks in advance

Hope this turns out to be trivial :-)

Am trying to print to a HP Paintjet connected to a terminal server
(90L+) from a DECstation 5000/240. The printer is connected via a
serial-parallel converter. I have set the printcap entry up as for an
LJ250. When printing (a text file) it does not do a linefeed and so
overprints.

Is there a dip-switch setting or printcap entry to fix this or perhaps
an escape sequence that needs to be sent to the printer (if so how?) ?

HI All,

	I noticed upon opening up my VS3100/30 that the *only* changes between
it and the 'faster' VS3100/40 are the clock (66.6666 MHz vs 44.4444 MHz) and
a jumper. This is down to the chip part number.

	The cost of the 66 MHz osc is about $10 so when I find one I'll give it
a try.

	My questions are:

	Who has done this?

	What is the max clock freq that could be used?

	Do you need additional cooling above 66 MHz?

	What componet typicaly fails first as you raise the clock?

The simplest way to do what you want is to open the file using RMS specifying
the User File Open option (UFO) in the FOP field of the FAB. The channel number
assigned is returned in the FAB$L_STV field, and you then use that to do
normal $QIO's on the file. As long as you stick to virtual i/o (i.e. block
specified within the file) no special privs. are needed.

There are a few caveats - look up the RMS manual for details.

Can someone give me a short (<100 lines) discription of the DEC alpha
workstations, including when they will be out, what their current level
of performance is, operating systems (VMS vs OS1), compatibility with 
previous VAX and DECstation hardware, and if possible, whether or not
these beasts should be able to run a previously compiled (under VMS)
program and, if so, what difference in speed should be seen?

Alternatively, point me to a source for this information.

Start with a newer version of emacs from prep.ai.mit.edu, along with
oldXMenu.tar.Z from the same place.  XMenu.h is in the oldXMenu.tar
stuff, so you'll need to make the emacs build look in the directory
you unpacked/built XMenu in for it.

	Most PDP11's run well on single phase, 15amp service.

	To meet code under fully loaded rack conditions, some larger iron

	The only thing that required 3-phase were early high capacity disk

I'm not sure if/how much this will help but...

We had a program called PIP-11 which was written by an Australian Digit (Doug
Tracey or Stracey ?).  It could copy PDP8 format dectapes to/from PDP11 format
dectapes running on a PDP8.  Hopefully it got into the Decus Library, although
they (DEC OZ) used to sell it originally. I added OS-8 I/O support, but the 
sources are long gone now.

It was interesting to watch the program running, because of the different tape 
format (PDP11 had interleaved blocks, PDP8 sequential), so the PDP8 tape would 
rock-rock-rock to and fro furiously, while the PDP11 tape just calmly zipped 
along.

Yes, we get it on lots of 4.2A systems. The uerf is full of them. I've been
told (by a field service person) that those messages can be ignored
since they were turned on for debugging during development and never

I think you're overlooking a far more useful installation media which you
just detailed above: the RL02. Years ago, when I used to suffer on a 11/730
(I think I could make better progress trying to kick a dead whale down the
beach than I could trying to compile on a 11/730), VMS was installed off two
RL02 packs. As for Ultrix, I would assume (silly me) that if the 730 was
supported by Ultrix that some similar installation configuration existed.

In any event, if you could find an existing Ultrix system with an RL02 drive
on it, I'm sure that it wouldn't take too much to create a minimal boot pack,
spin & boot it on the '730, get the RA80 configured to also boot some minimal
configuration and then shuffle the rest over to the RA80, one RL02 at a time.

Don't laugh; I did install VMS 4.4 and 4.6 this way on more than one '730 with
no tape drive. And I used to do backups onto RL02's as well.

No idea. Interesting tidbit tho; the interface from the TU58 to the system is
a DR-11W at 9600bps. So when you have alot of stuff to transfer to/from that
little tape drive, stick in the tape and go get a cup of coffee. Or two.

My experience was that it was a kinda funky VAX, cute, but oh-so-slow. Pretty
well documented tho.

You need to use fddisk(8) to format the disk, and then run newfs.  For example,
	
	fddisk -fmt /dev/rfd0a    # format the disk
	newfs /dev/rfd0a rx26     # add a filesystem

Ah, a cynic.  Not true though.  We had originally intended to get the 
software support into V5.5-1 and didn't make it, thus we've had to 
wait until V5.5-2 to get the software "in there"  We also had some last 
minute changes to ensure that the implementation was the same on the 
Model 90 as well as the Model 60 (so you can use the same module)

But DEC has already discussed and mayvbe even announced a TURBOchannel
