- Hello,
- I recently installed SLIP from Louis Mamakos (the latest version from
- sonata/incoming) and tried to run it on my new NeXTstation (OS 3.0).
- When I rebooted, everything looked fine, but then, when the loginwindow
- tried to come up, I got the message that it could not find a port for
- the window server and it never came up! The only way out was to reboot from
- a floppy and remove the entry from rc.local which had pointed to the
- SLIP initialization routines.
- Of course, I don't have SLIP this way :-(
-
-
- Did anyone else try to run SLIP (rel. date 920904) on a NeXt with 3.0 OS?
- Did it work for you?
- Are there any tricks to make it work?
- Is it all my fault?
-
- Any help and any hints and tips would be greatly appreciated!!
-
- Thanks,
- Helmut
