Even better, I found this post, this is my how to attach a vt100 to a VAX
4000, you can apply to most any case
Hi Bill,
Thanks for you help!
I will say that I have the getty running fine, baud rate, serial format, etc. all okay.
Works just fine at 1200 baud and below. At higher baud rates, it seems like the vt100 is
dropping some characters or bits after certain escape sequences, even with xon/xoff flow
control enabled, so I?m *pretty* sure the issue is just with the padding values in the
vt100 terminfo spec?
To answer your question, though: since this is Ubuntu 16.04, systemd based, it runs
agetty, and has no inittab. The sorta equivalent under systemd is serial-getty at
.service, which on my system looks like what is posted below. I?ve also posted the
effective terminfo (from infocmp) below that.
cheers,
?FritzM.
