Pentium II problems under Linux

[POLCHER Jan <Jan.Polcher@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

This is an old problem but it has not been solved for me by the version
4.9.

I am unable to run ferret on the PII on which runs under Linux (RedHat
4.2 package).

I get the following message :

        NOAA/PMEL TMAP
        Program FERRET (GUI)
        Version 4.90 - 11/21/97
        09-Dec-97 19:13     

yes? plot/I=1:100 sin(3.14*i/100)
Record too long for input buffer
Program terminated by fatal I/O error
Abort (core dumped)

It is not a hardware problem as it also shows up on another PII. The old
Pentiums seem to work fine.

Thank you for your help.

	Best regards

		Jan
