*Fossil Driver Documentation*
There have been several reports of problems with FOSSIL drivers and QWK-IGM
A few sysops are getting a "Fossil Initialization Error" when a user tries
to play remotely, but it runs fine in local mode. This is QWK-IGMs way of
saving you a CTRL-ALT-DEL <G>... The following settings are known to work
with X00 and BNU fossil drivers. If you still have problems after using the
recommended settings, contact us for assistance.
NOTE: These command lines should not interfere with the operation of other
IGMs. They may even run better! :)
-------
X00.SYS
-------
DEVICE=X00.SYS E FIFO=15 B,x,19200
Replace the x with the number of your COM port, but keep in mind the way
the fossil sees commports. For COM 1, you would replace the x with a 0. For
COM 2, you would replace the x with a 1. And so forth...
19200 is the locked port speed. If you lock it at a speed other than 19200,
replace it with your locked port rate.
Example for a modem on COM 2 with a locked port at 38400:
DEVICE=X00.SYS E FIFO=15 B,1,38400
-------
BNU.COM
-------
BNU.COM /P1 /L:x:19200 /Z0 /F
Replace the x with the number of your COM port, but keep in mind the way
the fossil sees commports. For COM 1, you would replace the x with a 0. For
COM 2, you would replace the x with a 1. And so forth...
19200 is the locked port speed. If you lock it at a speed other than 19200,
replace it with your locked port rate.
Example for a modem on COM 2 with a locked port at 38400
BNU.COM /P1 /L:1:38400 /Z0 /F
