Does anyone know WHAT may be the likely cause of this type of errors ? I happen
to have run into a situation where running PC-XWARE on a 486/75 over SLIP to a
VxWorks to cause PC-XWARE to crash! The SLIP connections tested include one over
modems and one being a straight link between the 2 boxes. DTE speeds for both
modems are 19.2K, and also 19.2K between modems. For straight SLIP, manage to
increase the speed to 38.4K. But because the VxWorks box (i960 CPU) does not
have hardware flow-control enabled, so it cannot handle anything higher at this
point.

The X server crashes resulted from the VxWorks boxes trying to open up a GUI 
window.

Thanks.
