Got things under control with syncterm using wine.
Gotta get the linux version on linux
I did this recently. Grab syncterm-1.1-src.tgz from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/syncterm
Unpack that archive keeping directories intact.
Go into that directory and cd src/syncterm
run make "RELEASE=1" and if that is successful "sudo make RELEASE=1 install".
You'll need gcc and friends installed for that to work. The build-essential meta package will do that on debian derivitives.
Seems a bit slow to react, but that is what you get from emulation.
Syncterm runs well here on the console and desktop nicely.
Since this is a test a responce would be nice.
Here it is!
It will take time but I will get there.
Yes, it is a step by step process.
an't get it to work perfectly, perhaps front door has a linux
interface.
Not that I know of. Binkd runs nicely on linux. If your tosser can use a BSO outbound, that is what I would use. It's not as pretty as FD but it works well.
Truth is I am very close to gettingXP to go.
I hope you get that running well.
It gets stuck a the language promt and wont take E as the language and d
does not work either when install openxp in a wine setting.
