- Sorry if this is an elementary question, but i was unable to find an
- answer in the FAQ or in any of the docs on tsx-11. I have linux (0.97
- patch level 1) running on my '386. I want to hook up a terminal through
- the serial port and put it in another room, so two people can use linux
- simultaneously. I am assuming that this is possible.
-
- Can someone tell what I would have to do with linux to make this work?
- I can hook up the terminal just fine, and talk to it through minicom,
- but i don't know what command i'd have to change or whatever.
-
- Please e-mail responses, as I doubt this is of general interest.
-
- Thanks a lot.
