SCO has valid case

I was at SCO Forum this week and viewed some of the disputed code and SCO's explanations both without and with NDA. They have a valid case. Linux kernel 2.4 to 2.6 contains AIX code which allows scalability beyond that which would have been available in a "regular development timeframe". Anyone interested in a copy of the non-nda PPT let me know and I'll email you a copy. I've tried several postings to the list server but it does'nt seem to be working.

With all this talk about posts not making the list - who is running the list? As an aside, I have tried a few times to contact people about problems I experienced in the past, but was never answered. So my question is... Who do I contact when there is a problem? Regards, Wil McGilvery Manager Lynch Digital Media Inc 416-744-7949 416-716-3964 (cell) 1-866-314-4678 416-744-0406?

And on an x86 it says ttyS00 and ttyS01 when the normal names in /dev are ttyS0 and ttyS1. /dev entries are just names for a major/minor device. They mean nothing other than a reference method.

many mails missing this August

I've had many posts go missing. Rob Brockway has just pointed out that LARGE mails are particularly vulnerable. This may explain why my test mails show up, and yet my larger postings vanish. I've had this problem for perhaps the past 3 or 5 weeks. Tom = Tom Karmo 416-971-6955 http://www.metascientia.com -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.

Through which /dev port does "chat" cmd look? I can't find this info anywhere in the chat man page. There exists no "usr/share/doc/chat" directory. -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.

It's an indirection used by the ppc kernel to mislead inexperienced ppc users like yours truly. It SAYS "tty00"; it MEANS "ttyS0". That's problem number one. Lennart helped me to discover that. Thanks, Lennart! The "setserial /dev/ttyS0" command and the "dmesg | grep tty" must match for hex port number and irq. (Else, setserial allows one to change settings. Oddly, the kernel "knew" it was misleading! The kernel put the right hex address and irq in /dev/ttyS0 but instead it chose to report /dev/tty00 in the dmesg.) My problem was at least three-fold: 1) I didn't watch the modem lights hawkishly while I cycled through the /dev/tty* 2) I didn't know about the setserial command at first 3) my chat script was (and is) faulty Once I had straightened out the /dev/tty00 -> /dev/ttyS0 fubar, and with the help of Lennart's "cat > /dev/ttyS0" instruction, I knew I could talk to the modem. I tried the chat script and got stumped. That's when I searched through the debian diskset: I dug through my cdrom sets for minicom and it was on a debian disk labelled "binary-2". I'm writing to you now through my ppc modem... sheesh! Two weeks of off-and-on debugging. Thanks to all who helped. (If anyone needs any modem help with ppc, send him my way.) cheers, max. -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.

Have you tried "setserial /dev/tty00" ? At the very least, do an "ls -l tty*" (which you may have to pipe through less) and see what you find. HPH!
