AFAIR, that error (that can make Wine ask for hardware flow control on a 3 wire line) has been there since I started working with wine in 1997. In fact, it spread to the 32 bit comms by being translated from the 16 bit. > I can see that the program donsnt ask for software flow controll, but in > windows it cant use hardware flow controll, so doesnt it use any flow > controll at all? I think this seams strange. > Any thoughts? > When I tested Mike's first stab at the handshake patch, it caused my 16 bit app to run without any flow control. It ran without any errors. Also there can be a kind of software flow control between the app and the entity at the other end of the line that the OS doesn't know or care about. > The1trex > I have a tar of Wine-20010305 and I thought to adjust the patch, but there have been just too many other little things fixed since then...more than I was aware of.
