Hi all, First, thanks for this PXES software. I prepare PXES on Wyse Winterm S50 (newer version of 5150) with X session to SuSE SLES as aplication sever I am PXE booting these terminal from this server. This works fine. I read mailing about WYSE 5150E and I have same experience with Wyse Linux 6 and PXES, seems to be PXES more better. Now about my problems. First problem is not so big. PXES has not implemented 5250 yet and a bit modify telnet.sh in PXES and copy some executables and libs to PXES from tn5250. 5250 is instead of telnet (I don't need telnet). I have to prepare keyboard and fonts for it yet, us and cz (I have already cz in PXES but for 5250 must be a bit different from base). Problem is that for 5250 I need setup "name" of 5250 session (env.DEVNAME option of tn5250) and in telnet.sh is TNO variable cleared, in pxesconfig it is not presented (in telnet setup). It is simple possible transfer TNO variable (or some new) to PXES ? Second problem is more complicated. I need to run DOS application FoxPro. I choose Qemu for it and after long mailing with Qemu-devel I setup X on Linux fatbox (SuSE 9.3) that when I run Qemu in full screen mode, VGA resolution change from some better (1024x768) to 640x480. There must be both mode define in configuration of X server and can not be used VESA. On this Linux fatbox as X server I connect to aplication server (SuSE SLES) with Qemu and Qemu in full screen works fine but not on Wyse with PXES connected to same application server. I setup PXES X with nsc driver with both mode but resolution does not change when I run Qemu in full screen mode this is in part of screen (640x480 window in 1024x768) same as with VESA driver on Linux fatbox. On fatbox I have not video nsc I have not PC with it the PC has S3. May be this problem of nsc driver in PXES ? Do somebody have better driver or whole X server of PXES ? I would like to try put PXE to flash of Wyse S50. Can you help me how to do it ? Sorry for long mail and poor english I hope that I clearly explain my problems. Regards Josef
