: customized my WIN.INI file, or added a couple of utilities...

I never conciously add anything to the disk with OS/2 on. I have DLL,
HELP, PSFONTS, etc directories on other partitions for extra stuff,
and if I spot anything else adding DLLs to system directories I move
them out. One major reason for this is that as my OS/2 partition fills
I run out of swap space, but clean upgrade path is another factor.

However, windows applications (well Ami Pro) seem to insist on
putting .INI files in \OS2\MDOS\WINOS.

: Has anyone worked out a "perfect" solution to this problem? Writing every
: little change on a piece of paper just doesn't sound realistic.

If we had (symbolic) links in the OS/2 file system then things could
be nicer as the UNIX (or at least SUNOS) approach could be taken.
Here the system partition /usr is (or should be) treated as being read only
with symbolic links to the /var directory structure (which is on another
partition) for things that may change (like spool directories etc).
Hence the OS can be upgraded by reformatting /usr and installing the
new version with the links to /var and automatically all the customization
directories are still there.

Keeping directories on a seperate partition for added DLLs etc is
a half way house to this regime as the symbolic link is handled by
the path lists in CONFIG.SYS.

No.  The reason the patch works is that many drives work the same way,
and the driver is checking the manufacturer ID to gurantee
compatibility.  It's like DOS's SETVER command - you don't make
something compatible, you just fake the system into thinking it is.
And the driver does NOT support non-SCSI drives.

Not to mention that IBM's current driver supports many more drives
now, so the patch really shouldn't be necessary.

I can wait.  ATI is expected to get their 32-bit VGA Wonder drivers
out by then as well.  Whichever arrives first get my business.

Do I see an ATI driver on ftp-os2, or do I see an XGA-2 board in

Yup!  I have on 0 - BootManager/UnixWare (~200MG IDE) and on drive 1
	I boot OS/2 off a logical partition after MSDOG (Primary).

I had the same problem on both HPFS and FAT drives, but never tried to trace it
to a OS/2 COPY or MOVE action. I'm sure it happens when you rename a file
in a DOS session and then copy another file with the old name to the same
directory. E.g. ren test.txt test.bak  copy ..\test.txt .

I have just OS/2 Version 2.0 and OS/2 Advanced LAN 3.0 on an IBM model

handle 1024*768.  The monitor is an IBM 8518, altho I have a NEC 4FG 
available I can switch from another computer, if need be. The IBM docs 
I have do not tell me the max. resolution of the 8518 (they refer to 
a tech ref doc not supplied), nor how to switch the XGA to a higher 
res. from the 640*480 that seems to have been set up.  Any info on 
either? The last may be a FAQ, in which case simply point me to where 
I should look.

You will be pleased to know that the OS/2 2.1 beta includes far better
documentation on this feature.  Take a look at the Master Help Index,
for example, which now makes the distinction between XGA's Screen Tab
and SuperVGA's Selective Install procedures.

There's no need to do that.  154X drivers are on the OS/2 install disks.

Actually, you can create boot image _files_ from which to boot a DOS session;
I forget the exact command, it's something like vmdisk d: filename.img to
create a boot image from drive d:.  Then, you can point the Dos Settings at
the image file.  This way you don't need multiple partitions to boot
multiple DOS versions.  Check your Master Help Index object for more info.

I seem to recall a utility that allows a _minimal_ image file to be stored
and booted from, instead of a full 1.44MB image of the diskette.  Try
ftp-os2.nmsu.edu (Hobbes) for this(?).

Dear Netters.

I would like to know if it is possible to change a running program in OS/2
by means of the drag and drop feature. For instance I would like to take 
a gif-fileicon and drop it over PMView and let PMView show the new file.
Note: I don't want to drop it over PMViews icon, because then I just get 
another program eating up my resources.

Is this possible? (How? )

Subject: WORKPLACE SHELL INCONSISTENCY
Organization: Technical University of Vienna
Date: Tue, 5 Jan 1993 13:45:59 GMT

I recently found one inconsistency in the Workplace Shell concept that is  
very confusing and I personally think that IBM should change that. Data  
objects and folder objects have a physical representation on the hard  
disk, while program objects and device objects are only references to  
either an executable file or whatever. Deleting a data object by dragging  
it to the shredder has therefore the same effect as typing DEL on the  
command line. The same applies for moving or copying data objects or  
folders. That means you always manipulate a file or a directory when  
working with data objects or folders. Hence I thought that changing the  
name of a data object in the WPS would have the same effect like REN,  
since the data object is in fact the physical file. What amazed me, was  
that only the title but not the real name was changed, whereas when I  
changed the name of a folder, the corresponding directory is renamed. I m  
well aware that the WPS has to deal with both FAT and HPFS which imposes  
additional constraints, but I think that since folders are directories and  
data objects are files their title and real name ought to be identical. I  
know that this has always caused a lot of confusion for new WPS users and  
I can t see a reason why this has to be that way. It would be so simple to  
allow only names to be entered (when renaming a data object or a folder)  
that comply with the naming conventions of the file system used.
If you have any comments on this I would appreciate your mail.
