Summary: Problems with Job Control
Keywords: emacs tcsh sco
Date: 6 Oct 92 10:59:40 GMT
Organization: Harris Adacom Corporation


Dear All,

Being new to the world of SCO unix, having spent plenty of time using
Interactive Unix, I have had problems trying to bring up Emacs and Tcsh
to operate correctly with Job Control.

From my investigations it appears that the problem is in the "curses" library.

When you issue Ctrl-Z within Emacs or Vi, tcsh displays the "Suspended" 
"prompt"a immediatly after the cursor location.  When the "fg" command is
issued the application does not redraw the screen.  After several hours of
testing I found an application that does not use curses and that works as
I would expect.

Has anyone else come across this problem, and is there a known solution ?

Thank you in advance for any light you can shed on this problem.

We have an Archive 2150S here and use a combination of 60/150/250

Hello,

I'm searching for the BIND nameserver version 4.8.2 and above for a PC
with SCO Unix (v3.2.2 if that matters). I would prefer source or diffs.

Any help will be appreciated.

Subject: xlock and SVR4 (two problems)
Organization: Jet Propulsion Laboratory (NASA)
Date: Fri, 2 Oct 1992 23:30:24 GMT

o Has anyone gotten xlock to work on SVR4?  (I'm trying the version
  written by Patrick Naughton, labeled "(sccs version 23.21)
  patchlevel = 2.3".)

o It refuses to acknowledge correct passwords.  The "guts" of its
  password checking is something like:

	check_password(password)
	char	*password;
	{
	struct passwd	*pw;

	pw = getpwnam(cuserid(NULL));

		if (   (strcmp(crypt(password, pw->pw_passwd), pw->pw_passwd))
		    == 0)
		/* password is correct */
		else
		/* password is wrong */
	}

  This works correctly under SunOS 4.1.2, but always fails (even if
  given the correct password) under SVR4.

o Fortunately, I was able to use ALT+SYSRQ,H to return to my console
  virtual terminal after xlock grabbed my machine and wouldn't accept
  my password.  *Unfortunately*, this ability to switch vt's defeats
  the whole purpose of running xlock in the first place.

  A man page says that a program called vtlmgr is responsible for
  doing the virtual terminal switching.  Ps doesn't report any
  "vtlmgr" processes running, nor do I see it in any $HOME/.* or
  /etc/* files.

  Is there any way to temporarily disable the vt-switching
  hot-keys?  I don't want to permanently give up the vt capability
  (i.e. when xlock isn't running).

I only use the basic 250mb tapes but my experience is that unless ISC
say it is supported you will have trouble (and quite often even if they
do).

By "local" I mean not long distance. Both of the feeds I mention above go
through the same serial port and modem at my end.

Not necessarily only at my end -- could be poor choice of parameters for the
combination of both ends.  uunet DID tell me that they could twiddle the
parameters at their end if I could figure out my options at my end.

The "f0t" device should not be used for formatting.  This device
is intended for dealing with already formatted disks.  You need to
use the device name that corresponds to the disk size and the type
of format you.  E.g.  f0d9dt, f0q15dt, f03t, f0ht
want on the disk.

I've installed X386 1.2E (X11R5) from bianaries I got from an ftp site. I installed TCP/IP and streams, set the TCP/IP to loopback (I dont have an ethernet card) and relinked the kernal. No problems or error messages. When I type xinit, I get

Binding TCP socket:Protocol driver not attached

Fatal server error:
Cannot establish tcp listening socket

If I do a 'ping localhost' I get 100% data loss. 

The machine is a homebuilt 25MHz i486, ESDI drives, super VGA. The unix is Interactive unix, System V, 3.2 release 2.0.2. I have previously ran Interacive's X11 R3 with no errors on the machine, but I havedone a complete re-installation since then.

Can anyone suggest what the problem might be?

MST provides (IMHO) a nice SVR4, also.  Here are their prices (last time I
checked):

		Base (SVR4.0.3):	$249
		Development:		$150
		X11R5:			$100
		Motif:			$100
		Networking:		$100
		Unlimited User Upgrade:	$100

The total system is thus $699, or $799 for unlimited users.  MST also provides
sources/binaries for lots of GNU and PD software, such as Emacs 18.58 and
GCC 2.2.2.  I've had absolutely no problems using MST UNIX -- I've had great
success building GNU software, as well as running the publicly available SVR4
binaries of XFree86 (so you can save a C-note on that).  My system has never
crashed (almost a year), but then again I don't do any networking or
communications stuff.  I had some initial problems with their first version of
X11 (R4), but the support people were very helpful and the problems are long
gone.  Also, MST has the best QIC-80 floppy tape driver I've seen.

What can I say -- I'm pleased as punch.  After owning and using SCO ODT 1.0,
MST SVR4 was like a breath of fresh air.  I'm not affiliated with MST except
as a customer.

Well, it's not all that new.  

When I first saw it, it was pretty bad.  So, I ignored it totally for
years.

Just saw it again recently and it looked pretty good.

Which shows that yesterday's product knowledge is pretty useless :-)

For all you users of ISC Unix:


I recently read that the reason SunSoft's Solaris 2.0 for Intel platforms
is taking sooooo loooong to release (officially) is because of the massive
amounts of hardware they (SunSoft) want to support on the 386/486 boxes.  I readthat the targeted time is second or third quarter of 1993!!!

I don't know about the rest of you, BUT I will stick with ISC until solaris
supports at *least* as much hardware as Interactive.


BTW, I thought this problem would not exist since SunSoft bought Interactive.
Why don't they just port all the software from Interactive to Solaris? Hmmm...

As it turns out the best bets seem to be linux, djgpp(dos), and emx(gcc/os2)
for extremely large process sizes (well in excess of 64 MB -> 228 MB -> n GB).

SCO, however, does support process space up to 32 MB (8192 pages * 4096 bytes)
with simple menu guided manipulation of system tuning parameters.

Does X386 under SVR4 allow for a "console window" like on a Sun or
other "real" workstation?

Have you looked at PC Interface?  It is shipped with most releases
of 386 unix these days -- and performance is rather good.  All one
needs as far as software for the DOS machines is PCI for DOS.
