doesn't change anything.

BUT, what i found out in the meantime ...

this problems exist with a VT320. i can boot & login with a vt220 !?!?!
(weird ?) 

ok, many tests ....

in both configurations (vt320 or vt220, 8n1 or 7e1) during boot, i get
sometimes this " mirrored question mark"  
 and i'm loosing characters. after login on the vt220 this doesn't happen
anymore.

the best is, after booting on the vt220,  i can switch to the vt320 and
work on it ...

lookes like during boot, some of the "wrong characters" shooting down the
vt320 and not the vt220.

cheers & thanks
emanuel

P.S. Don't think, the hardware is broken. I use both terminals on a MV3500
or Decstation. I tried al of this experiments with 3 different VS3100/M30.
(and 2 different cables ;-))

O.K. nothing is really sure, but i don't think it is the vax/terminal/cable
...
