AMSTERDAM Netherlands Lines: 32 Here are some questions about my microport system V/386: I'm working with the uport software for about a year now and generaly speaking i'm still very pleased with it. However there are a few problems I still can't solve: 1) There seems to be no way to get printer control code's to the /dev/lpdevice driver. Also the number of lines/page seems to be fixed at 66. (No lpset won't work - get : Attempting to enter debugger, with no db module configured. ) 2) The 3 1/2 inch floppy drive (720 kB) is not working. (It works fine when I boot msdos however). With Unix: $ format /dev/rdsk/f0q9dt I get: Unkown minor dev. no 48 (The f0d9dt (360 kB) driver works fine!) So for the time being I've connected a 5 1/4 drive. 3) With the dosmerge package I'm not able to create an EGA image with the dosadmin command, on my TOP SEGA 800 (from TAXAN) card. I get: ega image build process failed. Is there someone out there who experienced the same problems, and have found a solution for it? I would be very pleased to here from you.
