- Greetings. I recently upgraded from a 3B2/300 to a 486/33
- running SCO UNIX. I want to us my 5 TVI955 terminals with
- and SCO application but am having problems.
-
- I checked out a LOT of termcaps but they only go up to a
- TVI 950... I even applied the modificiations to the 950
- termcap that our software people suggested without help.
-
- I'm looking for a REAL TVI955 termcap entry, if one exists.
- If not, then maybe someone knows how to fix my problems:
-
- 1) The status line gets deleted (or overwritten) when my
- application starts up.
- 2) The bold/normal majorly screws up. Setting the "950
- compability" mode on the 955 does not help. Neither does
- setting the "control code does not use space" to true.
- This one problem completely screws up my main menu as
- well as the "sysadmsh" shell from SCO UNIX.
-
- Please help. I've been struggling with this mess for
- almost 2 months and I've given up. If I can't resolve
- this, I'll be forced to trash these terminals and get
- new ones (vt100 clones)
-
- Take care.
-
- P.S. If possible, please reply to fmgst@unix.cis.pitt.edu
