Stacy " of Sun 25 Nov 84 11:51:00-EST Message-ID: I guess I'd consider this a non-optimal move. Since we have a modest maount of memory on the machine now, I don't think it such a big lose to switch off 25% of the memory until DEC can look at it. There is some possibility that they aren't confused when they say they are hot. Noel ------- From CSTACY at MIT-MC Sun Nov 25 00:00:00 1984 From: CSTACY at MIT-MC (Christopher C.

Message-ID: The Very Small Bulletin Board on MC told me to load NITS, but there isn't any such file. I turned the card around to say just ITS which does exist. I hope that this only means that thhe card was wrong and not that someone accidentally deleted the system we are supposed to be running.

Experiment reveals that MC never seems to get told when such a line is reconnected to a new terminal, thus setting this bit causes MC to remember old, sometimes incorrect, terminal type information. Removing the %TYMDM bits should cause ITS to reset the terminal type information whenever the tty becomes free. This is better than the current situation, where a user can be seriously confused, but since the ROLM -must- be able to do this correctly, someone should really be looking into fixing it.

Message-ID: Every once in a great while when I log in I discover that %TOMOR is not set in my TTYOPT word. Since my LOGIN does nothing to change the default setting of more processing it must be the case that normally ITS or DDT (or PWORD?) turns it on. Well sometimes, given a blue Moon or something, it must fail to work...
