- Subject: Re: MiNTOS Distribution World Wide Web page now available.
-
- Hello all,
-
- I have a TT 4+16, and just set up MiNTOS on it. I saw some some chatter
- recently about people starting gem.sys from the MultiTOS distribution up
- after they login as root.
-
- When I login as root and start MultiTOS, it come up fine and appears
- to work as long as I don't touck the keyboard. I can
- drag/drop/launch/copy/move files and the like. If I open TOSWIN, and
- begin typing, or a com program and begin typing, the machine takes 4
- or 5 keystrokes (correctly echoing) then stops accepting input from
- the keyboard. a quik cntrl+alt+f1 shows MiNT(v1.10 + net patches) is
- still alive as the new Minix FS update is being called (I assume by
- addroottimeout()) and the mouse moves, but I cannot type or select
- anything with the mouse. Odd huh?
-
- Any tips would be appreciated.
-
-
- cheers,
- scott.
