To: Suns-at-Home@ecn.purdue.edu Hello, Does anybody know if there is a simple and cheap (ideally free :) Word Processor ? I love Framemaker, but it's way too expensive for me at this point. -dmitry ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Feb 94 10:50:23 GMT From: John O'Connor Subject: Mono Monitor Problem on 3/50 To: suns-at-home@harbor.ecn.purdue.edu I have a large (19" I guess) mono monitor on my sun3/50. After a (rare) power down last weekend, the monitor won't sync up to the video. What happens is this: >From cold the monitor displays each scan line staring at a different point across the screen. As it warms up, the image slowly changes to the point where all scan lines are aligned but so far over to the right that the image wraps round. I have had the lid off and played with the horizontal centering and frequency pots but I cannot improve matters very much. I know that the problem is the monitor as it goes through this cycle if I power the monitor down and leave the CPU turned on. Any suggestions? Are there any known weaknesses that can cause this fault?

I have such a board that may or may not work, but I'm not sure the jumpers are set correctly. --Pat. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 20 Feb 94 11:48:28 EST From: "Steve Turner @ Integrity Online" Subject: zmodem To: Suns-at-Home@harbor.ecn.purdue.edu Has anyone gotten zmodem transfers to work between their Sun and another Unix box? I am trying to connect my SS2, running SunOS 4.1.3, to a PC running SCO Unix. If I run sz on the SCO box, it outputs a string which seems to be intended to break back to the other side. But, since I'm not running ZCOMM or Professional/YAM (do versions even exist for SunOS?) which are the recommended packages according to the sz/rz source code I've got, tip doesn't recognize the string, so rz isn't invoked, and I'm basically SOL... I suppose it might work if I initiated the call on the SCO side, but since that's not possible, how can I get my SS2 to break out of tip/cu/whatever and invoke rz (or sz, for that matter)? Any clues will be greatly appreciated. You can reach me here via "swt@integtel.com" or more quickly via "swt@uiuc.edu", or just post to the list. st ------------------------------ End of Suns-at-Home Digest ******************************
