Oh, I have NetBSD/dreamcast. It boots and runs. But it doesn't
provide any glue to the rendering hardware, making it pretty useless
(or, at best, irrelevant) for games.

I've been resurrecting the old Dreamcast Linux. It's still an appallingly
old kernel but it boots happily and does things that, depending

Not much, yet. Aside from assorted poking at it to learn how to use
the hardware, the only thing I really feel I can be said to have used
it for was when I built

Depends on the protocol. While it's not a PDP-11, my own Dreamcast
serial-line code sends binaries over a serial line

Okay, so I scoped the serial line, and the EIA line drivers seemed to be
acting funny, mark voltage was way to high, etc. So checked power, and
looks like I have a -15V distribution issue to the SPC slots on my
backplane. Moved the DL11 over to my DD11 expansion where I already
debugged -15V

You might have to use native OS tools to do that. On Unix, that will be
'stty'; on Windows, you'd have to use native Windo
These settings work for a DL-11 M7800
9600b console serial port.
Real Time option
540677
5008775B
c29 open/out (not 110 baud)
c31 open/out (not 100 baud)
NP-U out (=no parity/disabled)
2SB-U out (2 Stop Bits)
2SB-U out (2 SB)
EPS out (EPS=even parity when NP is jumrd)
NB1/NB2 these two are set
