Subject: Problem with modem
Date: Mon, 23 Jun 2003 20:54:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3EF7CB69.5020307@rlknight.com> (raw)

I'm trying to get an msdos comm app (ProcommPlus) running under dosemu. 
So far everything goes well except the modem locking. I have comm2 
enabled as /dev/modem, /dev/modem is a link to ttyS1. I can use 
/dev/modem or /dev/ttyS1 with minicom and with kppp without any 
problems, but when I try to use the comm port under dosemu (or xdosemu) 
i get a n error message about the tty lock. It seems that dosemu creates 
a lock on the tty that prevents dosemu from using the tty. The exact 
error message is

"ERROR: attempt to use already locked tty /var/lock/LCK..modem"

How can I get past this problem?

Thanks,
Rick Knight
