This puppy is in good shape now.
It is a fully blown SCSI-driver, but it isn't a high performance one. It is
implemented entirely with polled I/O, and is intended to drive CD-ROM's, not
disks and tapes. It will run disks and tapes if asked to, but it isn't a
very good idea to do so. Transfer-rates max out at 600-700 kbyte/sec.
There is one problem: when write-requests get over 8192 bytes, the pseudo-DMA
stalls. This is only a problem if you dd(1) to a raw-device of some kind,
for mounting a disk it is ok. I have circumvented this by disabling the
pseudo-DMA in those cases.
It's very unlikely that I will spend more time on improving the performance
of this driver, it can do what I want it to now: install from a CD-ROM, and I
don't see any benefit in actually adding interrupts to the driver, considering
that performance never will be better than 700 kbyte/sec anyway.
You can install it under 1.1.5 too, by adding the lines to files.i386, your
config-file and copying pas.c and ic/ncr_5380.h over.
I will fix any bugs I can get a handle on.

Add initialization to the if_ie driver for the Micom Interlan NI5210 card.
This is a very old 82586 based card with only 8Kb or 16Kb on board memory.
Also only 8-bit wide instead of 16-bit like the AT& or 3COM card.
Warning: this thing is only tested so far that it detects all bits
correctly but is not yet on an ethernet. Will do that tomorrow.

- usr.sbin/Makefile add lptcontrol
- sys/i386/isa/lpt.c implement the LP_BYPASS flag: when a unit is
opened with this flag set, the printer is
not primed, and no check is made to see that
the printer is online. This can only be used
to pass ioctls. (giving us /dev/lpctl?)

Update the if_ep driver for the 3C579 and bring over some of the
changes from the netbsd driver.
This is not complete: the detection of the irq in the eisa does not
work and sometimes the reset for the 3C509 in ISA in an EISA bus system
don't work ( Need a hard reset to be found again == reset knob).
DIOCGDINFO, DIOCGPART, DIOCWDINFO, DIOCSDINFO, CDIOCPLAYMSF, CDIOCRESET,
CDIOCEJECT.
CDIOCPLAYBLOCKS removed (old implementation completely wrong and I don't
know how to implement it correctly).
All routines now detects media change correctly.
DELAY_GETREPLAY increased for long time access from first track
to last.
mcd_waitrdy() now use MIN_DELAY=15 as minimal delay which independs
of machine speed.
mcd_doread() now uses real status (old code uses obsoleted soft copy of it).
clear XBSY on error in mcd_doread()
mcd_statrt(): add missing splx(s), cause dead hang with unmatched slpbio()
optimize mcd_doread(), don't set CD mode each time, keep soft copy of mode.
call getdisklabel() _after_ mcdsize() for proper sizes
mcdopen(): old code forget to set MCDREADRAW in flags when open RAW
partition, doread check it for setting RAW CD mode.
Do nothing on stray interrupt (which sometimes occurse, because driver
read data block too slow, DOS driver use 'insb' here). Old stray code
cause timeouts.
Read toc entries code rewritten to return many requested entries
(as supposed) instead of one entry with incorrect structure.
CMDREAD2 requests covered with disable_intr()/enable_intr()
(from DOS driver)
Read junk code added after read block code in doread (from DOS driver)
mcd_read_toc() code fixed to read all needed entries, old code cause
some audio tracks is not played.
mcd_playtracks() code fixed to proper check valid track range.
New binary read modes implemented (from DOS driver).

2) Added ps ddb function from 1.1.5. Cleaned it up a bit and moved into its
own file.
3) Added \r handing in db_printf.
4) Added missing memory usage stats to statclock().
5) Added dummy function to pseudo_set so it will be emitted if there
are no other pseudo declarations.
2) DELAY(1) does nothing, it affects audio playing f.e:
driver can't play second half of disk, changed to DELAY(10)
3) Debugging messages #ifdef DEBUGed
find something useful to do other than taking credit for other people's
work. Also make the 3C507 bits match the indentation style of the rest of
the code.
Merged changes from 2.0 version (revisions 1.46-1.50) by hand.
Finished conversion to clists: removed flush of tty output buffer
in comflush() (most writes were truncated to 256 bytes) and restored
bypass of ttyinput() in siopoll().
Finished conversion to 2.0 types - more void *'s, less caddr_t's,
less casts, no Dev_t's.
Only these things are seriously broken now compared with 1.1.5:
waiting for output complete is impossible so ttywait() can deadlock;
sioclose() isn't called enough so sioopen() sometimes returns EBUSY
unnecessarily; input flow control is not implemented.

Add the 3com 3C507 card to the if_ie.c driver. The files elink.c and
elink.h are helding routines that are shared between the 3C507 and the
3C509/3C579. if_ie507.h are constant declarations unique to the 3C507.
The code is based on the NetBSD driver if_ie.c donated to NetBSD by
Rafal Boni and then modified by Charles Hannum.
Added a missing #ifdef INET wrapper in lpt.c
Main change:
Removed the timeout_func_t casts from timeout calls and
correctly defined the timeout routines to conform to
the new format.
lpt.c doesn't have this change.

This is the slowest and most stupid of our SCSI-drivers, but it is there
and it works. It has been tested with CD-ROM and disk.
It uses no interrupts, no DMA, just polled I/0.
Transfer-rate is <= 100Kbyte/sec.
If you set the jumpers on the board, you can change the unit-number and
you will be able to have four of these co-exist in one computer, why one
would do that is somewhat unclear though.
If I ever get my hand on the docs for this, I will improve it of course,
but for now we can install and access those CD-ROMs.
- Delete redundant declarations.
- Add -Wredundant-declarations to Makefile.i386 so they don't come back.
- Delete sloppy COMMON-style declarations of uninitialized data in
header files.
- Add a few prototypes.
- Clean up warnings resulting from the above.
NB: ioconf.c will still generate a redundant-declaration warning, which
is unavoidable unless somebody volunteers to make `config' smarter.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/clock.c:
o Garrett's statclock changes.
o Wire xxxintr, not Vclk.
o Wire using register_intr(), not setidt().
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/icu.s:
o Garrett's statclock changes.
o Removed unused variable high_imask.
o Fake int 8 for rtc as well as int 0 for clk. Required for kernel
profiling with statclock, harmless otherwise.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/isa.c:
o Allow isdp->id_irq and other things in *isdp to be changed by
probes. Changing interrupts later requires direct calls to
register_intr() and unregister_intr() and more care.
ALLOW_CONFLICT_* is brought over from 1.1.5, except
ALLOW_CONFLICT_IRQ is not supported. IRQ conflict checking is
delayed until after probing so that drivers can change the IRQ
to a free one; real conflicts require more cooperation between
drivers to handle.
o Too many details to list.
o This file requires splitting and a lot more work.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/isa_device.h:
o Declare more things more completely.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/sio.c:
o Prepare to register interrupt handlers as fast.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/vector.s:
o Generate entry code for 16 fast interrupt handlers and 16 normal
interrupt handlers. Changed some constants to variables:
# $unit is now intr_unit[intr]. Type is int. Someday it should
be a cookie suitable for the handler (e.g., a struct com_s for
sio).
# $handler is now intr_handler[intr].
# intrcnt_actv[id_num] is now *intr_countp[intr]. The indirection
is required to get a contiguous range of counters for vmstat
and so that the drivers depend more in the driver than on the
interrupt number (drivers could take turns using an interrupt
and the counts would remain correct). There is a separate
counter for each device and for each stray interrupt. In
1.1.5, stray interrupt 7 clobbers the count for device 7 or
something worse if there is no device 7 :-(.
# mask is now intr_mask[intr] (was already indirect).
o Entry points are now _XintrI and _XfastintrI (I = intr = 0-15),
not _VdevU (U = unit).
o Removed BUILD_VECTORS stuff. There's a trace of it left for
the string table for vmstat but config now generates the
string in one piece because nothing more is required.
o Removed old handling of stray interrupts and older comments
about it.

not provide the full accuracy of a randomized statistical clock, it does
provide greater accuracy than the previous method, while not significantly
increasing overhead. It also provides profiling support at 1024 Hz.
You must re-compile config before making a new kernel, or you will end
up with unresolved symbols.
Reviewed uy: Bruce evans said it worked for him.
Added code to check for an adaptec 1542B Version 3.20 Board. This was the
first board that supports >1Gb drives and has the extended bios. So we
need also to disable the exbios like it is done for the 1542C/CF boards.
``changes'' are actually not changes at all, but CVS sometimes has trouble
telling the difference.
This also includes support for second-directory compiles. This is not
quite complete yet, as `config' doesn't yet do the right thing. You can
still make it work trivially, however, by doing the following:
rm /sys/compile
mkdir /usr/obj/sys/compile
ln -s M-. /sys/compile
cd /sys/i386/conf
config MYKERNEL
cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL
ln -s /sys @
rm machine
ln -s @/i386/include machine
make depend

Added my if_lp TCP/IP driver to lpt.c.
I have (surprise) not been able to test it on a 2.0 machine yet. Connect the
machines with a parallel "lap-link" cable, and get rates from 35 kbyte/sec
up to 75 kbyte/sec. (when ftp'ing foo: dev/zero -> bar:/dev/null).
The same lpt.c file should compile under 1.1.5.1 without problems.
I think we should promote this feature when we dump 2.0 on the expectant
public, because it provides a cheap and efficient way to move data to and
from notebooks &c. It is not a replacement for ethernet, but a cheap
substitute sometimes.
This driver supports all the DEC EtherWORKS III NICs (DE203, DE204,
and DE205) and the later DEC EtherWORKS II NICs (DE200, DE201, DE202,
DE422). DEPCA-style boards prior to the DE200 have not been tested
and may not work.

the NTP kernel PLL is disabled, and acquire_timer0() is enabled, thus
opening the door for microtime() (and hence gettimeofday()) to return
bogus timestamps. This option is necessary for the `pca' driver to
work, but is implemented to underscore the fact that accurate timekeeping
and the `pca' driver are incompatible at present. If someone writes a version
of microtime() that works when the `pca' driver is being used, this can get
junked.
1) check va before clearing the page clean flag. Not doing so was

---
This list of changes is in approximately chronological order (oldest first).
o Many cosmetic changes - renamed comintr1 -> siointr1, moved
things around and fixed whitespace.
o Reduced SLIP latency (FRAME_END hack) from 20-30 ms to 16 ms
at 115200 bps (you won't notice the average 10 ms improvement
on slow lines). ppp seems to use only counted transfers so
there's no similar hack available. It's too hard for the
driver to know the count.
o Temporary #ifdefs for new and old interrupt handling
(OLD_INTERRUPT_HANDLING decided by setsofttty() not being
externally defined.
o Don't test for the IIR_NOPEND bit being set - test for the
non-fifo part of the iir equalling it like the docs say to.
States with other IIR_NOPEND set in combination with the
other iir bits are undefined. The docs may be stupid - the
old test would not have broken when the fifo bits were
introduced.
o Noted more problems with DTR wait.
o Rewrote console stuff. Still some initialization and state
preservation problems. Same for kgdb stuff. The driver
doesn't do anything about the console close bug. It needs
to be fixed entirely in i386/cons.c. I like chmr's version
where the the console driver revectors the device open and
close routines.
o Temporary (?) #ifdefs for references to tty buffers.
o Noted further things to do in (2 comments about 3 places) for
phk's change to not touch RTS unless it is being used for flow
control.
o Temporary #ifdefs for timestamp handling. It needs fixing.
The microtime() call breaks the first rule of writing fast
interrupt handlers: NO calls to functions that might do slow
and bad things. microtime() enables interrupts. This turns
out to be only moderately harmful. Also, I want the timestamp
copy outside of the normal interrupt handler.
o Don't init com->tp early for the !DONT_MALLOC_TTYS case -
both sides are NULL.
o Worry about com->tp == NULL in siopoll. I don't see how you
survived the (incc <= 0 || !(tp->state & TS_ISOPEN)) test.
Perhaps early sttys or comcontrols set up the tp's for _all_
the ports before this code is reached.
list of changes, I've made the following additional changes:
1) i386/include/ipl.h renamed to spl.h as the name conflicts with the
file of the same name in i386/isa/ipl.h.
2) changed all use of *mask (i.e. netmask, biomask, ttymask, etc) to
*_imask (net_imask, etc).
3) changed vestige of splnet use in if_is to splimp.
4) got rid of "impmask" completely (Bruce had gotten rid of netmask),
and are now using net_imask instead.
5) dozens of minor cruft to glue in Bruce's changes.
These require changes I made to config(8) as well, and thus it must
be rebuilt.

from Bruce Evans:
sio:
o No diff is supplied. Remove the define of setsofttty(). I hope
that is enough.
*.s:
o i386/isa/debug.h no longer exists. The event counters became too
much trouble to maintain. All function call entry and exception
entry counters can be recovered by using profiling kernel (the new
profiling supports all entry points; however, it is too slow to
leave enabled all the time; it also). Only BDBTRAP() from debug.h
is now used. That is moved to exception.s. It might be worth
preserving SHOW_BITS() and calling it from _mcount() (if enabled).
o T_ASTFLT is now only set just before calling trap().
o All exception handlers set SWI_AST_MASK in cpl as soon as possible
after entry and arrange for _doreti to restore it atomically with
exiting. It is not possible to set it atomically with entering
the kernel, so it must be checked against the user mode bits in
the trap frame before committing to using it. There is no place
to store the old value of cpl for syscalls or traps, so there are
some complications restoring it.
Profiling stuff (mostly in *.s):
o Changes to kern/subr_mcount.c, gcc and gprof are not supplied yet.
o All interesting labels `foo' are renamed `_foo' and all
uninteresting labels `_bar' are renamed `bar'. A small change
to gprof allows ignoring labels not starting with underscores.
o MCOUNT_LABEL() is to provide names for counters for times spent
in exception handlers.
o FAKE_MCOUNT() is a version of MCOUNT() suitable for exception
handlers. Its arg is the pc where the exception occurred. The
new mcount() pretends that this was a call from that pc to a
suitable MCOUNT_LABEL().
o MEXITCOUNT is to turn off any timer started by MCOUNT().
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/exception.s:
o The non-BDB BPTTRAP() macros were doing a sti even when interrupts
were disabled when the trap occurred. The sti (fixed) sti is
actually a no-op unless you have my changes to machdep.c that make
the debugger trap gates interrupt gates, but fixing that would
make the ifdefs messier. ddb seems to be unharmed by both
interrupts always disabled and always enabled (I had the branch in
the fix back to front for some time :-().
o There is no known pushal bug.
o tf_err can be left as garbage for syscalls.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/locore.s:
o Fix and update BDE_DEBUGGER support.
o ENTRY(btext) before initialization was dangerous.
o Warm boot shot was longer than intended.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/machdep.c:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. It's what I'm using, but may require
other changes.
Use the following:
o Remove aston() and setsoftclock().
Maybe use the following:
o No netisr.h.
o Spelling fix.
o Delay to read the Rebooting message.
o Fix for vm system unmapping a reduced area of memory
after bounds_check_with_label() reduces the size of
a physical i/o for a partition boundary. A similar
fix is required in kern_physio.c.
o Correct use of __CONCAT. It never worked here for non-
ANSI cpp's. Is it time to drop support for non-ANSI?
o gdt_segs init. 0xffffffffUL is bogus because ssd_limit
is not 32 bits. The replacement may have the same
value :-), but is more natural.
o physmem was one page too low. Confusing variable names.
Don't use the following:
o Better numbers of buffers. Each 8K page requires up to
16 buffer headers. On my system, this results in 5576
buffers containing [up to] 2854912 bytes of memory.
The usual allocation of about 384 buffers only holds
192K of disk if you use it on an fs with a block size
of 512.
o gdt changes for bdb.
o *TGT -> *IDT changes for bdb.
o #ifdefed changes for bdb.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/microtime.s:
o Use the correct asm macros. I think asm.h was copied from Mach
just for microtime and isn't used now. It certainly doesn't
belong in <sys>. Various macros are also duplicated in
sys/i386/boot.h and libc/i386/*.h.
o Don't switch to and from the IRR; it is guaranteed to be selected
(default after ICU init and explicitly selected in isa.c too, and
never changed until the old microtime clobbered it).
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/support.s:
o Non-essential changes (none related to spls or profiling).
o Removed slow loads of %gs again. The LDT support may require
not relying on %gs, but loading it is not the way to fix it!
Some places (copyin ...) forgot to load it. Loading it clobbers
the user %gs. trap() still loads it after certain types of
faults so that fuword() etc can rely on it without loading it
explicitly. Exception handlers don't restore it. If we want
to preserve the user %gs, then the fastest method is to not
touch it except for context switches. Comparing with
VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS and branching takes only 2 or 4 cycles on
a 486, while loading %gs takes 9 cycles and using it takes
another.
o Fixed a signed branch to unsigned.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/swtch.s:
o Move spl0() outside of idle loop.
o Remove cli/sti from idle loop. sw1 does a cli, and in the
unlikely event of an interrupt occurring and whichqs becoming
zero, sw1 will just jump back to _idle.
o There's no spl0() function in asm any more, so use splz().
o swtch() doesn't need to be superaligned, at least with the
new mcounting.
o Fixed a signed branch to unsigned.
o Removed astoff().
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/trap.c:
o The decentralized extern decls were inconsistent, of course.
o Fixed typo MATH_EMULTATE in comments. */
o Removed unused variables.
o Old netmask is now impmask; print it instead. Perhaps we
should print some of the new masks.
o BTW, trap() should not print anything for normal debugger
traps.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/asmacros.h:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. Just use some of the null macros
as necessary.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/cpu.h:
o CLKF_BASEPRI() changes since cpl == SWI_AST_MASK is now normal
while the kernel is running.
o Don't use var++ to set boolean variables. It fails after a mere
4G times :-) and is slower than storing a constant on [3-4]86s.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/cpufunc.h:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. You need mainly the include of
<machine/ipl.h>. Unfortunately, <machine/ipl.h> is needed by
almost everything for the inlines.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/ipl.h:
o New file. Defines spl inlines and SWI macros and declares most
variables related to hard and soft interrupt masks.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/icu.h:
o Moved definitions to <machine/ipl.h>
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/icu.s:
o Software interrupts (SWIs) and delayed hardware interrupts (HWIs)
are now handled uniformally, and dispatching them from splx() is
more like dispatching them from _doreti. The dispatcher is
essentially *(handler[ffs(ipending & ~cpl)]().
o More care (not quite enough) is taken to avoid unbounded nesting
of interrupts.
o The interface to softclock() is changed so that a trap frame is
not required.
o Fast interrupt handlers are now handled more uniformally.
Configuration is still too early (new handlers would require
bits in <machine/ipl.h> and functions to vector.s).
o splnnn() and splx() are no longer here; they are inline functions
(could be macros for other compilers). splz() is the nontrivial
part of the old splx().
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/ipl.h
o New file. Supposed to have only bus-dependent stuff. Perhaps
the h/w masks should be declared here.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/isa.c:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. You need only things involving
*mask and *MASK and comments about them. netmask is now a pure
software mask. It works like the softclock mask.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/vector.s:
o Reorganize AUTO_EOI* macros.
o Option FAST_INTR_HANDLER_USERS_ES for people who don't trust
fastintr handlers.
o fastintr handlers need to metamorphose into ordinary interrupt
handlers if their SWI bit has become set. Previously, sio had
unintended latency for handling output completions and input
of SLIP framing characters because this was not done.
/usr/src/sys/net/netisr.h:
o The machine-dependent stuff is now imported from <machine/ipl.h>.
/usr/src/sys/sys/systm.h
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. You need mainly the different
splx() prototype. The spl*() prototypes are duplicated as
inlines in <machine/ipl.h> but they need to be duplicated here
in case there are no inlines. I sent systm.h and cpufunc.h
to Garrett. We agree that spl0 should be replaced by splnone
and not the other way around like I've done.
/usr/src/sys/kern/kern_clock.c
o splsoftclock() now lowers cpl so the direct call to softclock()
works as intended.
o softclock() interface changed to avoid passing the whole frame
(some machines may need another change for profile_tick()).
o profiling renamed _profiling to avoid ANSI namespace pollution.
(I had to improve the mcount() interface and may as well fix it.)
The GUPROF variant doesn't actually reference profiling here,
but the 'U' in GUPROF should mean to select the microtimer
mcount() and not change the interface.
/dev/mcd0a instead of /dev/mcd0d. This is more conforming to the /dev/cd0a
for the SCSI cdrom drives. It breaks the convention d the whole drive.
But the question is, do we really need partitions on cdrom drives ?
1) tty.c: gather all the info about the processes before calling ttyprintf
(which may block).
2) syscons.c: handle asynchronous output properly (data structures may
be corrupted otherwise).
Example:
Application use port cua01
Getty open ttyd1 (allocates rawq,outq,etc) and waits while application
done
Application quits, sioclose issued, ttyfree issued (getty calls revoke)
Getty awakes and goes to panic into initrb (NULL rawq)
now HUPCL set only in bidir case for callin lines
(this prevents set HUPCL on mouse)
comhardclose:
in addition to HUPCL case now DTR dropped for bidir case
if line was active in and no carrier present now.
(this prevents DTR sleep on mouse)

The transfer speed was only set in the retry after error, not when
switching drives.
it still looks a little suspicious that so many of the status codes are missing
so I'm not going to adopt all of the existing ones yet. Try to be more
descriptive in the use of hex constants.
Changes _only_ take effect if `options LAPTOP' is set.
Note: This one is distinctly dodgy. When my IDE drive spins back up from sleep
mode, it generates this `extra interrupt' condition by spinning back up and
generating an intr, though without any particular action required. This
message coming out every time is rather annoying, and thus disabled.
However, what I'm not at all sure of is whether or not all IDE drives will
behave in the same way, or if perhaps it needs to be done in a more complicated
fashion by detecting this more involved "I've spun up and am just saying hi"
condition. This is a simple change and easy to back out/ammend if anybody has
any better ideas.
hack in the moment for testing purposes and to get the drive going
again.
0x20 means empty drive.
0x30 means closed drive with CDROM inserted.
0x80 means drive pulled out, but door closed.
0xa0 means drive pulled out and door open.
Luckily none of these values are the same as that reported for Ethernet
cards ( 0 for WD8003E, 0x40 for WD8013EPC, 0x60 for NE2000).
The bad part is, the probe code gets the WD8003E so hosed, that it is
no longer usable after it. No problem with the WD8013EPC.
my previous fix too (using wdp_heads controller value) and check
0 heads case too.
Other fixes from Bruce:
2) Fix dk_timeout from 2 to about 4 seconds.
3) wdcontrol not retried on internal error.
4) wdwait return check changed ( "!=0" to "<0" into wdsetctlr,
"<0" to "!=0" into wdgetctlr).
This inetrface should be used from now on.
pseudo device pty xx still keeps its meaning: a maximum of
xx ptys is allowed.
A ringbuffer is now 2040 bytes long, per Garrett Wollman's request.
The changes are inspired by the way NetBSD did it (thanks for that!),
though I made it slihghtly different, including the interface so
at least 75% of the allocated space is deallocated when the tty is
closed.
Note further that it is easy to modify the ringbuffer length runtime.
This will have to wait untill some later date...

Subject: Bugfix for SB16 with DSP version 4 and above
No description sent, but it appears to fix a major number problem
with certain models of the SB16.
Small hack, if heads > 16, output a warning and then set the head
count to 16. This stops the infinite loop on this error and allows
people to later fix the DOS parameter table later with fdisk.
run Exabyte 8505 on 1742's. This may not be the final solution, but it
makes it work. It may be better to change the DELAY(10) to DELAY(30)
inside the loop instead of increasing the loop count from 100 to 300.
Subject: Bug Fix for ft.c - please commit

This fixes a bug where the system can crash if the tape is used
after the floppy has been used.
When the keyboard is probed, the LED's blink quickly and
"Keyboard reset failed" is printed on the console. The
init routine keeps trying endlessly with the same behavior
as above.
I got the latest -current sup sources (06-Feb-94 12:00 GMT) to work using the
old syscons.c. The following patch makes the new syscons work:
2) Make SNAKE_SAVER like default, if no saver specified in "options"
3) Remove #ifdef STAR_SAVER before line /* make screensaver happy */
this code needed in any case.
