Fuzix file systems are Fuzix format (it's a sort of hybrid of v6 / v7 and system 5). They are 512 bytes/sector and any I/O will be a multiple of 512 bytes. Given that Fuzix only uses the firmware at boot time I don't think you'll have a problem as Fuzix simply won't see your device. It can do flushe...

Oh and you should be able to set the various terminal properties in inittab

so you can do

getty /dev/tty1 38400 vt52 40 25

(the speed will get ignored for a console obviously)

The use of '/' as a switch is a DOS thing. Unixlike OS's use '-'. So stty -h would have been the thing to try. Control-S/Q will eventually do flow control if xon/xoff is enabled. Right now that's not implemented at all (RTS/CTS is for a few serial ports). The CFX-II video will also at some point mag...

What does

printenv

and

stty -a

show

I suspect it's just a good old fashioned bug so I'll try and test it on my Memotech when I get a moment.

TERM=vt52 export TERM (will work nicely for the 40 col screen, the 'real' 80 col display but not yet the propellor one) You can also set the screen size with stty cols 80 stty rows 25 or similar. If it still misbehaves please let me know. I'd expect the adventure games to 'just work' on the 40 colum...

Easiest way

type

/usr/games/whatever

I've not uploaded a new one yet

I will do when I get a bit of time.

Tivial enough

I think you'll have rather more luck with the emulator than finding actually hardware - especially floppy disk hardware ! At least unless you have a very large budget. memu can emulate the serial port although it would need a little bit of hacking in dart.c to make it open a socket to irata instead....

The VDP: ??? is a bit odd - is that repeatable and just a bug in your memu or something else I wonder. With the real machine it seems to detect reliably and also with the older Memu I am running ? I've updated the image again. It now tries to do a few other things like detect and use the MTXplus tur...
