- Yes, I think there is a patch for that problem.
- The RTS/CTS flow control doesn't work with this TOS version.
- The patch can be found on the following ftp server:
- ftp.tu-clausthal.de
- There is a dircectory with several patches:
- /pub/atari/systools/tosfix
- Your patch (if you don't have TOS1.4; I think so) is
- hs_fix.lzh
- If you have more questions or you have no ftp-access mail to me.
