The IRQ Hack is normally a simple hardware modification. Details can be
downloaded. I believe it's IRQHAK.TXT in some lib. You might want to bro
lib:all key:irq to find it. There are TWO RSSave's. One is Basic-09, the
other is not. Check your docs to see which you have. Or use Ident on your
Rssave command. If you have the Basic-09 one, delete it and get the other one.
It's better than the B09 util on which the "other" one is based. If you are
NOT using the Basic-09 one, what do the problems seem to be; mine works fine.
The software IRQ Hack will work only if you are using the original Clock
module. If you have a hardware clock and installed a new Clock module you
cannot use the software fix as published. I believe the software fix was in
the August 1990 issue of Rainbow. The Telecom article in the current issue
(11/91) may also be helpful.
At 300 baud the IRQ Hack is probably not necessary (it wasn't for me anyway).
But at 1200 you should have it. Consider it a must-have if you want to go to
2400 baud.
