A volunteer at another site built the same C-Kermit version on OSR5.0.5
with /bin/cc rather than UDK. Running it locally on my own 5.0.5 system
with external modem, where I can hear the noises and see the lights, I
find that:
. The high serial speeds now show up in the "set speed ?" list.
. You can actually use them (e.g. 57600 bps).
. Modem signals are still inaccessible (TIOCMGET).
. Hanging up with DTR off/pause/on still doesn't work.
If anybody has OSR5.0.5 code that drops DTR and then turns it back on
that works (e.g. brings DTR back up after the pause and if RTS also went
down, it comes back up too), I'd sure like to see it.
Also, via remote access to 5.0.6a, I *think* I verified that hanging up by
toggling DTR works there, but I can't be certain since I couldn't monitor
the lights. However, TIOCMGET still seems problematic -- it reported that
all modem signals (DTR, DSR, RTS, CTS, RI) were off when connected to a
modem with a fully populated modem cable. Can anybody confirm or deny this?
I have no information or reports about unpatched 5.0.6.
