With my DEC 240 i've had similar experiences. If i connect a dumb terminal
to it, and enter setenv console s it appears to switch to the serial port
for i/o but i can only INPUT. Ie, nothing siplays on the dumb terminal,
but if i type 'reset' i can see all the lights flash, so i can obviously
send from the dumb term.

I never managed to resolve this. I reckon its down to crappy 240, which,
off the record, is the buggiest system?

If you fix it some how, could you let me know?=20
