Thanks for the information David. Does anyone on this list use the Cybe=
rVision
64 Kernel and a 28.8 modem at a baud rate of 57600? Or know of a way to=
=20get the
source to the cybervision 64 console kernel so I can try recompiling it=
=20to allow
me to run at a baud rate that can keep up with my modem?
Nick :)
