Hi,
I'm wanting to connect an actual serial terminal (Wyse 60; VT100 mode) to
a small i386 PC running NetBSD 7.99.25 (snapshot w/ GENERIC kernel). The
cable is a straight serial, DB9 (PC COM port) to DB9-DB25 (Wyse MODEM
port). I added a 'consdev auto' entry to /boot.cfg (see below) which
seems to get the serial port address right and I'm able to get the dmesg
stuff to display during bootup but no interaction via the keyboard. I
tried various combinations of [Full|Half]Duplex and RCV Handshake
[none|XON/XOFF|DTR|both] ; none enabled 2-way communication.
Current settings are attached. Is there something more I need to do?
Jeff
