Re: [LHA-misc] Questions on xalib

[Jay H. <jay...@2i...>]

I've got 0.45 working just fine...

I believe what you are running into is one of 2 things:
1) it can't 'hear' the ocelot. I'll leave out the obvious
list of "Does the serial port work?" and check the cables but
make sure you turn off all flow control. I spent about a half-hour
the first time but since I had used the port for some other stuff
the flow control was on.
2) you need a link from /dev/ocelot to the device

Also, I'm running direct (xacmd, not client/server) and I forgot
the details (diff later) but there was a problem with the using
the ASCII version (xaacmd) when you send a lot of commands
back-to-back because there isn't an acknowledgement.
