In standard VGA (i.e. 640x480 in 16 colors), yes.  Otherwise, no,
Trident has not provided seamless drivers for the Trident 8800.

I hope this question will solve a lot of people's problems.
I hear a lot about watson and the OS/2 files there, but I have
the problem that I can only send FTPMAIL and I have no idea
how to contact the watson site and get first a dir and then
a file using FTPMAIL. I can't even get a message through to the

Does anybody have a clue how to access watson using FTPMAIL ?

After posting my original question, and trying all suggestions, I was unable
to create a RAM disk for an individual DOS session. RAMDRIVE.SYS (PC-DOS 5.0)
does NOT work (error msg saying block device drivers not supported).

The reason I wanted to created a RAM disk in a virtual DOS session was to
speed-up some programs that do not use EMS or XMS memory. These programs
will use a RAM disk instead of paging data to the hard disk. Since I have
8-Mbof RAM I wanted to devote some of this to speeding up these programs
but did not want to allocate the RAM on a permanent basis. I am still
hoping to find a solution. Any suggestions?

If you want to go into a holding pattern, while using something with
excellent OS/2 2.0 driver support, get a Trident 8900C 1 MB adapter.
Fast Micro, for example, sells one for $69.

If you want to get something with performance that you'll be happy
with for some time to come, yet without spending a lot of money, try
the ATI Graphics Vantage (1 MB), just $215 from Computer Discount
Warehouse in Illinois.

I have the same problem with my ATI Graphics Ultra, i.e. the same error

again it would proceed without problems. No idea whether this is normal.

I set SVGA OFF now and rebooted but the same phenomenon is there.

Actually, you did better  than I did. I  called about a CPS:  Extent not
found problem that  we had encountered  two weeks earlier;  in fact *we*
had found the fix (since IBM had said it couldn't be repaired), and were
trying to tell IBM how to  fix it themselves. The guy manning  the phone
lines told me that our 60  day free support had expired three  days ago,
and if WE  wanted to tell  THEM how to  fix THEIR bug,  we would have to
_pay_ the $129 or so for the priviledge. Sheesh.

OS/2's a  terrific product,  but boy,  is this  kind of  crap in support
making it a hurdle to deal with.

   I've got a couple of questions:

  1. Has anyone gotten 640x480 256 color mode in OS/2 2.0 on any Packard Bell
computer? I have a 386/20sx that came with an SVGA card, and works with
stuff like Links 386 pro and svga modes in win 3.1, but it's a Packard Bell
card, built into the motherboard, and I have no idea what drivers, if any,
exist to make it work in that mode under OS/2. (On the desktop).

  2. Any time I start up a Win/OS/2 session, switch to the OS/2 desktop, then
back to the Win/OS/2 session, the windows and icons all turn black. Yes, I
have installed the black icon fix, blkico.zoo from hobbes, but it didn't fix
this problem. Any ideas?

I'm sorry to hear that, but that's really a bug in BVHSVGA.DLL.
Now to set up the video mode, I use VioSetMode, which uses
the BVHSVGA services. And BVHSVGA uses the SVGADATA.PMI
file to find out how to initialize the video registers.
Maybe there is a way to manually patch the .PMI file.
I will try to investigate on this.The problem is that I have only
one ATI adapter, and it works just fine on it.
If there is somebody out there with the same problems *AND*
a good knowledge of video registers....

Hi,
	This message coming to you via TE/2 at 19200 baud through a null
modem cable.  I'm hooked up to my dorm server by a null modem cable, and
have been receiving background dl's at 1700 CPS with no problems.  No
crashes when I exit TE/2, although it takes TE/2 a heck of a while to exit.

Of course, this does *nothing* to help you.  I wish I could help.  I just
want to let you know that this isn't an impossible deal.  It's worked fine
for me from day one.  Good luck.

P.S.  I used the default modem file for the null modem, and it seems to work.
You may want to check your parity, data, and stop bits to make sure you've
got them set up right for the machine you're talking to.

Precisely.

It is growing more important (having a 32-bit bus with bus mastering
adapters) as systems get faster and software more demanding.  I would
certainly recommend a Microchannel or EISA system as a LAN server or
multimedia platform, for example.

But if you the decide to hook up a second disk, you will have fun.
The second disk becomes D:, and OS/2 gets very confused (remember all

Sure you can install MSDOS 5.0 upgrade from B:. 
The one you are talking about (plain MSDOS 5.0, not "upgrade") can't be

I've got Linux, Dos and OS/2 installed on my system in a system that

you simply tell Linux where your root partition is (/dev/hdb?), and set

Does anyone know of a Zmodem package for OS/2 that allows you to escape
all control characters and offers file-resume capability?  The version
of M2Z that's on ftp-os2 doesn't have all-control-character escaping, and 
neither does TE/2 1.2.  Something like GSZ/DSZ would be nice...anyone know
if those are ported to OS/2 yet?  Oh...and are there any comm programs for 
OS/2 that allow you to customize your protocol drivers?

Thanks!
