- I have just installed A/UX 3.0 on my Mac and have the following problems
- with the CommandShell and serial port.
-
- The CommandShell only respond to a keyboard event only after another
- input event has been sent (like another key press or a mouse click).
- So if I type the character 'a', it doesn't show up until I've pressed
- a second key or click on the mouse. Output to the window is also
- similarly affected: output comes out a few lines at a time and then
- mysteriously pauses until I click the mouse or press a key.
-
- I have Super Boomerang and SuperClock running on a Mac IIci w/8MB RAM
- in addition to QuickTime.
-
- The next problem: I get a kernel trap error (type = 4 or 5 I think) whenever
- I try to use the serial port. It doesn't matter if the MacOS is running
- (it happens with X or MacOS alike, running something like Unix kermit or
- a MacOS comm program like Microphone II) and it takes place after I have
- successfully started the session for a while (like as much as 15 minutes
- after successfully using the serial port).
-
- Since I have only just installed A/UX, I didn't really do any tweaking of
- the system.
