SCO Xenix doesn't have this. (And are you sure you don't mean TIOCSTI?
Or did they rename it?) However, I wrote a device driver that sort-of
emulates it - when a process writes characters to /dev/sti the
characters are fed as input to the process's controlling terminal
(/dev/tty). This has the disadvantage that you can't use it on any
arbitrary terminal - although with setpgrp() you can detach from your
control terminal, apparently open()ing a tty doesn't make it your
controlling tty unless no other process has it open (under SCO Xenix -
I thought it was different under BSD, but it's been too long). I could
be massively confused, however (and frequently am).

Actually, "wrote" isn't quite correct. What I really did was take a
pty driver I found on the net, rip most of it out, and do a bit of
fiddling.

I wrote it once. It works only on those architectures which have
the TCIO ioctl system call. It acts as following: you give the ioctl
a character and it makes the terminal believe that it has received that
character from the ``keyboard''. It works well on SUNS's, for istance.

This is a bit of a cross post, but I am having trouble installing cnews on
a sco xenix 2.3.2 system.  (I have posted this in news.software.b as well.)
Can anyone out there help me with this?  Currently, I am compiling with
dbm, no sizeof, and a few other tweaks.  The problem is that newsrun exits
with an error stating that ';;' unexpected in line 128.  That is the line
after the *) of the case statement in the compress section.  If I comment out
the || and the following line, leaving the necessary ;;, it doesn't give
an error, but relaynews is executed, but does notthing and hangs out there
as a process.  If I run relaynews on its own I get the same behaviour.

Any suggestions?  For obvious reasons, direct mail is better than posting, 
but I will check in periodically.  I hope that this is not a faq.

Thanks in advance.

I've often wondered whether the authors of improvements like this might
consider posting them separately to alt.sources, or something.  Your bus
mouse driver is just one thing that's come up.  There's also Per's socket

I am contemplating buying DR DOS 6.0 to use with my Xenix 2.3.2 system.
Can these two cohabitate on the same disk? (in different partitions,of course)
Would it be possible to boot dos from the "boot:"? Can I copy files back &
forth between partitions?  I am guessing that I wouldn't be able to do this
if using the optional data compression driver. Has anyone had any similar
experiences?

Maybe this won't help you, but one of the big bugaboos when trying to write
COFF executables for Xenix is hard-coding in information about the physical
layout of the filesystem and file names.

Hope this helps.

I bought a 33MHz 256K-cache "Novas" computer at Fry's
(with Tiawanese motherboard and MR BIOS)
3 weeks ago.  When I run Xenix 2.3.1 on it, the computer
occasionally locks up -- there is no response to keystrokes,
screens stays as it was.  This happens especially often
in the bc program.

The problem goes away if the caches are disabled.

My questions:

Does anyone have insight into this behavior?
Will getting a newer Xenix or Unix fix it?
Will using a different computer fix it?
Has anyone else had this problem?

Please help me confirm/deny a rumour...

For those of us with Toshiba T5100/T5200 machines, at one point
it was necessary for us to use SLS xnx 134 to get SCO Xenix to 
work properly on our machine. (Because of that damn plasma screen?)
The question now arises, is a similar SLS necessary for the 
SCO UNIX on these two boxes, or should everything work fine?

I've tried calling SCO and they say they don't support those machines.
I've left a message on Toshiba's bulletin board asking for help, and
then tried calling their voice help line.... tried the toll line, after
several bumps through the electronic answering system got disconnected.
Tried the toll-free line, same problem.

I have one friend trying to put my graphics package onto his T5200
running SCO UNIX, but is having problems which sound suspiciously
like the ones we encountered on T5100/T5200s running SCO Xenix
without the SLS.

Any ideas, hints, or help would be appreciated.

Does the Xenix user have the directory '.' (or alternatively exact path
to the directory where the program is located) in his PATH shell

You are asking for trouble doing it that way. The first error
you get will mean that nothing else will be accessed.
You need to compress the files first and send them to disk as
individual files.  

Using the k option of SCO's tar will tell the system how much
can fit on a disk and then ask for a disk change.

Better yet - get CTAR.   It will do all you need, verify
everything, and much more!

Hmmmm ... X386's mouse support (mit/server/ddx/at386/mouse.c) uses
select() to wait for mouse events (this ties in with an earier posting), and
uses read() to get the events. (Actually, select() is called elsewhere, in
mit/server/os/4.2bsd/WaitFor.c).

Presumably you want your own driver because SCO's isn't acceptable.
My busmouse(with X386) seems to work OK. Am I missing the point?

Hello,

	a while ago a saw a mail of a guy who told his SCO server was
dying, when it ran out of sockets. After a while the scheduler seems to
solve this problem and then the system began working again.
	
	I am now confronted with the same problem.

	- an Zenith 486/33Mhz machine running SCO 3.2.2 and NFS
	- the system is the Sybase server
	- PC's connected thru ethernet and running Sybase applications
	- each window of the PC open +/- 5 sockets
	- windows are rappidly changed.

	So : very fast are sockets opened and closed
	And: the system starts working very slowly, and then it seems
	     it died.
	But: after some time the PC's can connect again.

Question : does some-one know about this kind of problem?
	   does someone know an solution
                e.g.  parameters/new release/faster scheduling ?
By the way : in config.h is SOCK_UNITS defined as : 256
             the system has 32 Mb internal memory

I am trying to do remote backups from a SUN IPC to a SCO ODT 1.1 machine's
tape drive. The tape drive is a WANGTEK 5150 EQ. It's more convienent
to use 250MB catridges because of the way my file systems are set up.
This poses no problems when I issue a cpio command from the SCO machine.
I simply use the  "-K volume" option and everything works fine.  Since 
this option does not exist on the SUN I don't know
how to use a 6250 (ie 250 MB) catridge for remote backups.  I poked around
the /dev directory  on the SCO machine and found the following device 
entries that seem associated with the tape drive:
		/dev/rct0   ....... This is the device I currently direct
		 		    my cpio output to.
		/dev/rct2
		/dev/rmt/0a
		/dev/rmt/0an
		/dev/rmt/0b
		/dev/rmt/0be
		/dev/rmt/0bn

Do one of these device drivers control the 250 MB tape similiar to the
floppy drives----> /dev/rfd1135ds18 vs. /dev/rfd1135ds9 ?  Is there some
other option on the SUN IPC (SUNOS 4.1.2) that I can use.

Well, since I'm fairly sure that someone else out there has or will run
into this little quirk, I'll post the solution.  The problem arose from
using a DigiBoard at high baud rates, since it remaps the lower ones for
it's use.  (110 became 110k)  Vi saw those lower baud rates and set the 
default window size according to what it thought was appropriate.  (and I 
find that pretty ridiculous at this state of the technology)

PERL binaries (in the form of a custom disk image), plust lots of other things
are available for anonymous ftp from unix.oakland.edu in the /pub/xenix
directory.  There were a few days when the archive reported disk errors.  This
was due to the restructuring of the disk system on another system, but which
was mounted via NFS.  At any rate, the archive is all healthy again.  There
was a time when the entire archive was built on my system from sources, but
there isn't enough time to do all that.  I do now accept binaries from
others who I judge to be reputable.  We do also have to be selective about
what we put there due to disk capacity, but we are always asking for more..
