[ big CC: scissors workout ] On Mon, Nov 30, 1998 at 03:14:30PM -0800, Mike Smith woke me up to tell me: > > > >> > Nov 25 23:10:11 zippy /kernel: sio0: 9 more tty-level buffer overflows (total 1260) ... > > I was assuming the serial interface which is a fixed one breaking out of > > the back of the Laptop had nothing to do with the PCMCIA, > > You're quite correct; it doesn't.

How far does that extend? I get sio overflows all the time on my laptop; it just has a hardwired SLIP connection. I've got it down to 19200 baud (cables worked just fine at 57,6, couldn't tell at 115,2) and it still gets overflows every few minutes when I'm doing anything that passed data across the serial line. I assumed it was just the processor power (486 SLC/25) being slightly less than up to the higher data rates. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* | FreeBSD; the way computers were meant to be | * "The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is * | that I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet."| * fullermd@futuresouth.com :-} MAtthew Fuller * | http://keystone.westminster.edu/~fullermd | *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
