Hi.  For anyone interested.  SCO Foxpro 2.6 for Unix now works with the
latest Linux 2.4 kernel.  You need to install the latest kernel and
linux-abi (instead of iBCS) patch.  See my web site, www.dennisallen.com,
for my FPU FAQ sheet.

Just one hurdle remains.  Even with the new linux-abi, the mouse cursor
still doesn't work.  I've worked with the author of Linux ncurses, but no
luck.  He needs to know is the design details of the SCO mouse drivers.  Is
it suppose to work with xterm's mouse protocol?  Maybe it works with
scoterm's mouse or maybe uses COFF.  He doesn't know.

If anyone has any ideas on how the mouse cursor is suppose to work in SCO
Foxpro 2.6 for Unix, please let me know...Dennis
