RTS/CTS and fast modems.

[Dancer <dancer@ozspace.brisnet.org.au>]

I've just gotten a Supra 14K4 faxmodem. Lovely. However, It won't work if 
I select hardware flow control. I've tried SERIALFX and HS_FIX which both 
install, but stty < /dev/ttya reports '-rtscts' and stty rtscts < 
/dev/ttya will not enable it.

I've tried the HSMODAxx patches. Before mint in the auto folder, and the 
system freezes as soon as MiNT tries to load any .XDD files from c:\multitos\

If I execute them _after_ MiNT, (either from MINT.CNF, or from one of the 
boot scripts, or from shell) I get 4 bombs. Yes, I execute them in the 
right orer (DRVIN.PRG, followed by MFP.PRG)

I'm using a 4MB Ste. No accellerators, no hardware mods, no other 
funny-business. Just the standard machine. MiNT is 12h3.

PS: What's the best MTU to use for this line? It's presently set to 600. 
I can get my ISP to change values for me at will. What's best to use 
(19200 DTE speed, 14400 line speed, CSLIP, LAP-M compression) and WHY?
