- With Issue 2.1 of Dell Unix, I was never able to
-
- 1) successfully use hardware flow control with getty/uugetty (and before
- anyone mentions it, I didn't use ttymon because it didn't work when I
- originally set this up under Issue 2.0)
-
- 2) push the DTE speed higher than 19200
-
- with the stock asy driver. Installing SAS allowed me to use hardware flow
- control and push the DTE to 38400. I was so pleased with the results, I
- left it that way when I installed Issue 2.2.
