I think it is the _version_ of ShellPlus you're using that's the key. Where did
you get version 2.2?

It's been a long time, but I believe that I tried that patch.

I removed it, but maybe some of the later versions fixed the problem I
encountered.

With a Ramdisk pretty full of files (and with ":" enabling wildcards),

    :del /r0/*

required a reset to recover.  As I recall, the lockup was visually quite
spectacular...  The wildcard expansion exceeded the parameter space allotted to
"del", due to the patch.

This prompted me to create the patched version of the Microware Shell called
(both internally and externally) "ohell".

But, as I noted, perhaps some of the other patches overcome this problem.

4-in-1 board, cannot use the modem's flow control for the advanced features of
the error-correcting/compression stuff (board has DTR/RTS hardwired) it seems
to work well.  The other modem worked well, really, except for that darn
off-hook condition. (I have to pay long-distance, and a time or 2, forgot to
turn if off until several minutes after logoff.)  I may try to see if I can
send that or another modem in for repair (cost could be as much as for a new
modem, but I might give it a try).

Zack,

Somewhere in the Ultra C distribution archives is a program called "p2init"
that does the same about the same thing as fixing the init module.  Put p2init
in your /dd/CMDS directory and add a line "p2init fpu" to your startup file.
Assuming you still have fpu in your OS9boot file, this will let you use Ultra
C.  I did it this way on my System IV/PT68K-4, which _does_ have init.a by the
way, just because I was too unambitious to fix my init.  P2init is handy for
people whose system vendors did not supply all the files and manuals they
should have.  Your init module should be pretty short so you could run your
init module through debug to reserve assemble a "source."

I'm not about to use debug on the init module to generate a source file for
init.a, IMS should have included it on my OSK disks. At any rate, I feel that
the moded patch to init is more desirable than running another command in my
start. Thanks for the info, though!

Sb: #OS9 Serial Port Problem
Fm: Bob Rea 72733,250
To: All

I am fighting a nasty problem in OS9 with a serial port (Matrix SI02)
transferring binary data.  Our code (device driver and application) works
perfectly on the test bench with a driver simulating the other system we are
exchanging data with.  In the field, however, the process is killed with a
signal 3 within 3 minutes of connecting the systems together.  And we don't
receive the heartbeat message from the other system that happens every 3
seconds.

We put a data monitor on the other system and it is behaving exactly as
specified and exactly as the simulation code we have.  We can detect no
extraneous data bytes in the information stream.

The symptoms act as though the buffer in the device driver in over- flowing.
That will cause a signal 3 to be sent killing our application and the 3 minutes
is just about what it takes to fill the buffer given it's size and data
transfer rate.  The question is: What could possibly be happening to work
perfectly on the test bench and not at all out in Nebraska (we unfortunately
are in Columbus, Ohio)?

The first thing to suspect is a hardware problem, but that does not explain why
no data is reaching the application.  The overflow could be caused by a bad
cable that is negating RTS/CTS (XON/XOFF doesn't work with our binary transfer
stream).  But it is hard to imagine a hardware problem that inhibits the
transfer of data from the device driver to the application.  When we first
installed the system, it did work correctly.... so we know it can work.

If anyone has fought through this problem and can help point me in the right
direction, it would be a great help.

The first thing I'd do would be to double check the settings in the serial
device descriptor...are you sure it is set the same as your test system?

Next, you might want to write some test code to monitor with _gs_rdy() if
anything is getting into the serial port buffer.

Not much...but I hope it helps 'turn on a light'.

On this matter of customer support on CIS. As you know, I've been supporting
folks for my products...however, most of this has been via mail, on on this
forum. Frankly, I have no objections to doing it publicly...most questions
probably have a wider audience (except for yours <g>).

Guess what I'm wondering is: just what is the policy? I try to be real quiet in
promoting my products. But for folks who have already bought??

Also, I'm not sure how many other 'vendors' are active. Maybe we should have a
'vendors forum' where questions of this nature can be directed. Mind you, if no
other vendors are going to be active there's probably not much point.

Bob, what follows are my opinions only and should I mis-speak, I'm sure Wayne
will correct me.

We welcome participation from any vendor. The only caution I'd need to add
would be that blatant advertising will not be allowed. Product annoncements are
encouraged. Technical discussions on the product are welcome. Open examples of
technical support actually do more good that ads, in my opinion.

We have a private area set aside for the Vendors use ...but unfortunately, it
never saw much activity. It originally came about during the Frank Hogg/IMS
flame wars a couple of years ago.  There should be a file in the library
describing it's purpose and how to gain access. Look for VENDOR.TXT

As far as other active Vendors on the forum ... lessee, there's Zack, John
Strong, Frank Hogg, Ed Gresick, Mark Griffith, Bill Dickhaus, and Mike Haaland
just off the top of my head. I'm sure there are more.

We stand ready to assist the OS9/OSK vendors in any way we can. I've been a
strong supporter of using CompuServe forums in this manner, so if you have any
ideas on how we can better use the resources at hand, drop me a note.

Tell you what. I'd like to start a file listing all the vendors that are active
on the CompuServe OS9 forum. Let's include Company name, User Id, mail address,
phone number and a _brief_ description of produts and services offered (this is
not a catalog or price list, just a general description). Let's limited it to
say ... 5 lines.

We'll compile the data and post it in the Library with a pointer that stays in
the News Flash Announcement.
