When the interface is very busy (sending continuously for long periods, minutes), console messages will occasionally stray off to /dev/ttya instead of going to the console. Has anyone else seen this before? Is it perhaps a peculiar side effect of the DELAY(x) kernel macro? Broken hardware? Configuration: Sun 4/280, xylogics disk controller, standard scsi tape, fujitsu 9 track, Super-Eagle, 32Mbytes of memory, and an IKON 10089 DR11-W interface board in a VME2-3 adapter in the last slot. As long as I'm asking, any thoughts on why selection_svc won't die like a good little process should when I exit suntools (or root, guest, etc. for that matter)? /* Jim Hutchison UUCP: {dcdwest,ucbvax}!cs!net1!hutch ARPA: JHutchison@ucsd.edu Disklamer: it's mine.
