Lines: 17 I am using a Racal-Vadic VA212 modem for both dial-in and dial-out access. One curious thing about the terminal driver on UNIX is that in order for the open call on a tty to complete, the CXR line must be on (that is there must be a carrier on the modem line). However, this cannot happen until the modem can be told to dial out and establish contact with a remote system. Is there any easy way to fix either the tty driver or open call so that it doesn't wait for CXR?
