Re: help with seting up a dumb terminal to Linux please

[Luke Davis <ldavis@voicenet.com>]

Just a quick note: using VT100 terminal emu is no problem with speach:
infact - it is recomended.
I do it all the time, and would have it no other way, especially after
using "dumber" terminals.

The slw stuff works fine under rhl (if you have the same software); but I
recall having a hell of a time getting rhl to handle my terminal.

I finally used a mingetty command copied from a console entry, so I could
get my terminal working; then managed to get UUgetty working.

If you have to, though, you can use a redirected sh or bash to the
terminal to get speach while getting getty up & running.

bash </dev/ttyS1 >/dev/ttyS1 2>&1
