Dear folks:
I have some questions regarding hp 9836U (series 200) systems running
HPUX. We have 3 of these, two of them up and running. I have many
questions for those of you who have perhaps used these machines more
than we have.
1) Perihperal devices: We might have the opportunity to install
some additional hp devices. They are not listed in the
installation manual as supported, however. Can any of the
following be installed? Does anyone know about device drivers
for them?
* HP 7925 hard disks
* HP 7970E 9-track tape drive
* HP 2608A line printer
2) Graphics: The 9836U is suppossed to support graphics, using the
DGL routines. We have tried using the demos supplied, but the
screen initialization routine (ZDINT) fails, with an error of 2.
ZDINT is not documented, although the other routines are.
3) Any interesting software? (Particularly graphics) I know this
is a blanket request, and hard to answer, but so far no one has
really done anything with the systems, and i am trying to get
them more functional.
replies to me, or the net, as you see fit. If anyone is interested,
i will sumarize.
Thanks,
david
