Linux has no native capabilities for dealing with half-duplex block mode terminals as a console. The 3270 console driver the UTS folks wrote provides some basic scrolling capabilities, but it's not a normal Linux terminal, and there's no native termcap support for it. > This has made our Master Console for zLinux very limited in terms of > capabilities and made us very dependent on the network. > what is everybody else doing in this regard? Running line mode 3215 consoles for Linux systems under VM, or using EXT2TOOL to edit Linux filesystems directly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
