That's certainly not w<hat you want. You just created a console on this
terminal, useful to login but useless for any other serial device! remove
the settings you added and first try to configure your serial port from
the GUI : toolchest->System Manager->Serial devices, that's the easy way.

I don't think you should be using getty on that port if you intend to
use it directly with other programs. getty is to provide a login
session on that port, which is not what you want here.
I'd start with commenting that line out of inittab, and then make sure
nothing else uses that port.

Yes, I have the driver code for Irix. It can open the port, but it's no
possible to receive data from the glove!
Any suggestions? |

Do you have a driver for IRIX?
If the answer is "no", that's what you need to address first. It does
not matter if you can connect the device if nobody's listening.

OPen serial port on Irix. Help me!!
|
|

I'm a novice of IRIX systems. I must use a glove on my ONYX4 connected
through a serial port. I have the driver code for Linux. I know that
changing the device file /dev/sstyS0 with /dev7ttyf3 for IRIX
(hardware flow control) it should work fine. Unfortunately it does not
go. I have tried to use system manager by adding a seril device, I
have changed the inittab file, but nothing. In my opinion it needs to
set and open in right way the serial port. The detailed
characteristics of the glove are these:
speed = 38400 bps
bits = 8
parity = NOT
stopbit = 1
hardware flow control.
The init tab line that I modified is :
t3:23:off:/sbin/suattr -C CAP_FOWNER,CAP_DEVICE_MGT,CAP_DAC_WRITE+ip -c
"/sbin/getty ttyf3 dx_38400" # dx_38400.
ANY suggestions?
thanks in advance !
