Hello. I am playing with one VT220 plugged to the
serial port of one Pentium
4 laptop. I have Cygwin installed, with Init and getty started, and the
serial port defined with VT200 and 9600 bauds, and I want to open one
session under Cygwin from the VT220. Of course something happens under
Cygwin, because every "enter" opens a new login in the ps list under Cygwin.
But nothing appears in the VT220 screen...
Possible terminal emulation problem?
Are you saying that you see 'login' itself in the ps each time enter is
pressed? That'd seem more like a getty misconfiguration to me; makes it
sound like login's getting hung up somewhere before the user's
environment is set up.
Never used cygwin before, but is there anything meaningful in the system
logfiles?
You are seeing *something* on the VT220 aren't you? (login prompt or
whatever)
cheers
