A question for those of you who play with Hercules...
Are twinax cards
supported under Linux such that a 5250 terminal can be connected and work?
Not to my knowledge. I think the best you'll be able to do (which
isn't really all that bad) is to pick up a 3174 with Ethernet or TR
capability, network that to the Linux box, and hang terminals off of
that. I know some people have done that with great success, and if I
can ever find an appropriate flavor of 3174, I plan to do that myself.
I have a beautiful 3290 here, with keyboard and key, and am looking
for any other 3270-compatible terminals; I'd love any number of 3277,
3278, or 3279 terminals if anyone can spare some.
