Hey all,

I wrote about this on ArakNet but thought maybe the TQW wizards might be able 
to help me figure out what I might need to do with a few issues .. I'm at a 
loss .. 

When finally getting my BBSes back online a little over a month ago, I moved 
them from my RPI to a laptop running Linux Mint (Ubuntu), and updated the 
Mystic version (and data files) using the usual ./install replace ~/mystic and 
../upgrade features.  I was running headless and wired on the RPI and am now on 
WIFI on only driver.

1.  My keyboard buffer will not clear if I use the [ENTER] key (fine using any 
other key) with ANSI files only; the keyboard buffer clears fine with .mpl's.  
I've tried pipe code | PB, three keyboards, localhost, ssh, telnet, doesn't 
matter.  I'm currently using a combination of MCI
codes PN and PA to get each ANSI to stop.  I haven't had someone to call in and 






























































































test from their end, but I have tested Netrunner and Syncterm myself.

2. Amiga fonts no longer appear to be working. I had been successfully using a 
text editor to add both the ANSI font codes, as well as the newer Mystic pipe 
code | SF03 within an ANSI wrapped border. A few that called The Ruins BBS, may 






























































































have recall me having done this with all of my menus. 

3.  I'm getting garbage characters within dupe/bad messages as well as 
sometimes with ./mutil -run massupload.  In addition within dupe messages I get 






























































































lengthy word wrap variations, both illustrated below.

Originally this was a Windows BBS and I'm unsure if moving all of my data and 
ansi files from a Windows box to a linux box may be part of the issue.  For 
those that have called my BBS, I hope one can understand I'm not redrawing 
everything :/ or mass deleting data files anytime soon (not to mention the 
100's of file bases I've managed to built over time ..)

So I've been annoyingly living with these buggy "things" however if anyone 
knows of a sudo slick way of making the pain stop (legally and with life 
intact) I'd appreciate any tips :)  

It's just a hobby, but still ... you know?  :)
