- Hi all.
-
- Just a quick note to say thanks to everyone who emailed me, and gave me
- pointers to where I had gone wrong. As it turned out, I merely had to do a
- 'outportb(0x20, 0x20)', to let the 8259 know that I had finished servicing
- the Interrupt. My routines are now working fine (I have had a 12-line
- Terminal emmulator prog, written with these routines, communicating at
- 57,600, with *no* characters being dropped!
-
- Thanks all,
-
- Damien Gardner Jnr
-
- P.S. If anyone's interested, I'd be happy to send them the .h, and .obj
- files for these routines - just let me know what memory model you want.
