Hi!  I have a couple of terminals here which could be useful under Linux 
as terminals.  One is made by ICL and has a DB25 and a BT plug...  
Unfortunately I don't know anymore about these.

The other is a Visentech VS-230...  Has a DB25 on the back, and can 
communicate well with a dos-based comms program over a null modem cable.  
However a getty can't talk to it.

Any help?  Or should I find a skip somewhere?

The VS-230 is a DEC Vt100 compatible, about as "standard" as you can get.
