Hi,
anybody out here uses a TZ30 on a Vaxstation 4000/90 ?
With success ?
I get:
!TC on DAta XFER {intr 10,stat 83, step 4] prevphase 1, resid c
all the times.
Do we have problems with the TZ30 in NetBSD 2.0 again ?
Or did I just get a bad drive ?
Cheers & thanks
Hello, A follow-up on my X problems with NetBSD/vax 2.0: i finally got around to shuffling the hardware around a bit so my Vaxstation ended up with both HDs i bought recently. The old one contained functional 1.6(.1) setup that worked just fine with xdm so i copied configuration files over (entire /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm directory). Voila, at least i got xdm login from Vax now. Based on differences [actually the lack thereof] between xdm-config and Xaccess files in both setups my conclusion is that significantly changed Xresources is probably the culprit. Anyway, now that i got past this problem i figured i can finally get a window manager running. Twm works ... to an extent. http://tinypic.com/view.html?pic=1oqdtt This is xterm started via twm menu and xboard started from said xterm, after 1 minute or so of waiting - plenty of time to come up with something but nothing did. Ditto for xbomb (window comes up with few idgets but they are all blank). Xclock -digital shows blank rectangle while analog clock works. Icewm still dosn't seem to work (it changes mouse cursor and background and nothing ever shows up, no menu, no taskbar, no nothing). Just to make sure my X server wasn't the culprit i startex xdm on a Linux box (with fvwm) and started xboard there: http://tinypic.com/view.html?pic=1oqdxj Worked like a charm. Methinks there is something messed up really bad(Continue reading)

Hello from Gregg C Levine As of two days ago, I now have here a VAX Station 3100 Model 76. It looks like the one that Chuck McManis has photos of, on his website, but is definitely different in that mine will be run using a serial console as opposed to wearing a monitor and keyboard. I'll probably pull the frame buffer out of the unit. That being stated, I was able to identify the ports on the machine's back, and naturally the serial port is a DEC MMJ. Now the question: Does anyone have the specifications for wiring a DEC MMJ? I have a computer who's wearing the usual serial port on his back, and I need to create a cable that's got an RS232 connector on one end and a DEC MMJ on the other. Incidentally the computer who will be posing as the console will be a Compaq Portable III. ------------------- Gregg C Levine hansolofalcon <at> worldnet.att.net ------------------------------------------------------------ "The Force will be with you...Always."

I've got a sheet of paper at home, if nobody else sends the wiring diagram, you'll get it from me in about 45min.

As a side note, I disagree with the how the socket is drawn (though, the numbering is the same compared to what I found in my papers). If you hold the plug (with cable) in your hands, right in front of you, put the cable down, the contacts away from you, so that you're looking at the "nose", which should now be at the left side. With this view, the pins are numbered 1 to 6 from left to right.

Hello from Gregg C Levine Thanks for helping me find that information regarding how to wire an adapter for a DEC MMJ cord set to RS232 connectors. Now I need to find a place that sells DEC MMJ patch cords at reasonable prices in the US, preferably in the NYC area. Also the connector that they plug into. The wiring guide that website produced talked about only how to wire a DEC MMJ socket to a DB9 or DB25 connector, not my problem, wiring a plug to those connectors. The funny thing is that a Leviton guide that I have here that discusses practically everything telecom also mentions how the DEC MMJ connectors are wired. Doesn't give the pin names, just how the things are wired. ------------------- Gregg C Levine hansolofalcon <at> worldnet.att.net ------------------------------------------------------------ "The Force will be with you...Always."

This may or may not be helpful, but Mouser Electronics stocks the MMJ connectors themselves. I finally got sick of scrounging for MMJs and bought an MMJ die for my AMP crimp tool several years ago. 6-conductor silver satin cable is easy to come by, and Mouser stocks the connectors, no problem.
