 Doesn't Lockup waste CPU operation? I remember it moving a little lock around
the screen. Is scrutl plain enough that it just blanks the screen without any
fancy cartoons or CPU usage?

I run version 2.0 on a 16MHz coprocessed (although I doubt that matters)
SX with only 6 MB of RAM.  I would say performance is adequate; Windows
applications aren't as zippy as in a DOS/Windows combination, but I do
get reasonable speed.
I guess the way to overcome a speed hangup with OS/2 is think about how
well you're able to multitask.  Moving away from Windows was a very hard
decision for me, but one day I just got fed up with poor multitasking
(specifically, BAD CRC errors on a Procomm Plus download) and made the
move.
Now, even on "half a 386" as my friends say (16MB memory limit and 16bit
external data path) I can run the same background download without any
errors.  Again, the drawback is nothing seems to move quite as fast as
on a DOS/Windows machine--it just runs better.

I did wonder what's going on with the 2.01 beta version.  I received the
package about 5 days into the program (I was really excited) and ran
the install procedure.  The entire process went smoothly, but upon 
rebooting, I was presented with a screenfull of debugging information
shortly after the OS/2 logo disappeared.
A friend said he's heard of problems running 32bit software on SX machines
...anybody else care to comment?

Via comp.binaries.os2 the CSD would be transfered to each machine only once,

There is a jumper on my trident card that had to be removed before the
higher refresh rates could be used.  Once the jumper was removed, I had 
to run 'svga off' and then run 'svga on' in a full screen dos session to
generate a new svgadata.pmi file that knew that the card was set for the
higher refresh rates.

The L40SX power management drivers are designed for use with a plain
Intel 386SX and the L40SX's custom power management hardware.  I *think*
the AMD 386SXL is equivalent to an Intel 386SL in that it has built-in
power management modes.  I would guess Samsung's power management BIOS 
and OS/2 2.0 aren't talking to each other.  I would also guess that
it should be possible to fix that, but that it's probably up to Samsung
to take the initiative.

OTOH, if you'd like to try the L40SX drivers let me know your address
and I'll mail you a disk.

Subject: A question on CDROMs
Organization: Universita' di Padova, Italia
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 1992 11:17:15 GMT

In  the  last weeks I read several articles concerning the use of
non-SCSI  CDROMs under OS/2.  The answer was, of course, that the
only way to see them is to use a  "specific dos session"  (I  use
a Compaq 3.31 DOS, since DOS 5.0 doesn't work).
Now the question: is it so difficult/impossible to write a device
driver which recognize even these CDROM ?   If I correctly inter-
preted an article posted a while  ago,  "serial" CDROMs adhere to
a standard,  which was "extended"  by  Microsoft in some way with
its MSCDEX, so it should be possible to write a driver supporting
at least the "minimal" features, or not ?

Please post/mail (e-mail is preferred) your opinions, suggestions
(I'm learning OS/2, since I always worked on Unix, but I'm think-
ing to write by myself this damned driver if none does it before)
etc.
Thank you in advance,

Distribution: world
Organization: Private System

Just over a week ago I sent this message to someone at IBM. As I've
had no acknowledgement I assume it was not received. I know that 
IBM's Team OS/2 monitor this newsgroup, so here's hoping that 
the 2nd attempt reaches someone.

I note that you intend making the service pack available on the internet.
Presumably, this means that it will be available for downloading from
software.watson.ibm.com. Which also means that it will be possible
for anyone with internet access to download it.

Personally (and this is only a personal guess) several hundred to just
over a thousand people will ftp copies from s.w.i.c in the first few days
of the package's availability. Included in these hundreds will be a number
from outside the USA/Canada who will be tying up the rather limited
international internet links. In effect the same 15+ Megabytes of service
pack will be copied across each link several times.

To conserve bandwidth, and to speed the distribution, I was wondering if
it would be possible (and acceptable to your legal department) to come to
an arrangement with the powers that control comp.binaries.os2 to have 
the service pack simultaneously available through that distribution
channel?

I think the /I parameter means to ignore the name of the manufacturer of 
the drive.  The IBM reference disk for their internal CD-ROM has a 
player.  I'm running MMPM/2 with a Toshiba CD and a SoundBlaster Pro.  It 
works great.

An Index, telling us what each of the packages are would be
nice - those
of us who have to use ftp mail servers have to get the
*.package files, then
the actual files (if wanted). This increasing accesses to
watson, and takes
two days to get anything (one day for the package files to
arrive, another
for the zip files)

Aside from that, thanks for providing the service !

Yes, they've done it.  Microsoft, whose users have continually bothered OS/2
users about delays in GA shipping and have constantly held an end of 92 date
for NT release in our eyes, has dropped shipping of NT to early 1993.  I just
read this on Prodigy, so I assume it has basis.
This should give OS/2 a decided boost, as the service pack will be out soon,
which has improvements many users(and potential users) have been looking for.
With the extra time, the potential users will have more time to see OS/2 as
the only CURRENTLY AVAILABLE alternative.  This is what analysts have said
OS/2 really needed, with all the magazines touting NT as the OS to end all
OSs.

Additionally our file area is growing daily.  Downloading OS/2 fixes
will (in the future) not count against your remaining time on the board.
We are trying to arrange permission to provide OS/2 and OS/2 product
betas.  (Wish us luck with IBM!)

Non-MN OS/2 End-user Group members will have 15 minutes access per day
at any speed.  (October 1992 is a free month and in about 24 hours
you'll be a registered user.  To retain this level, you'll need to join
the group.)

MN OS/2 End-user Group members will have 90 minutes access per day at
any speed.  Cost of member is $30 of which $10 goes to support the
board.

This works; I did "set TEXCONFIG=D:\emtex\ps" and it worked fine.
Funny, I thought I had tried that already.  Guess not, because it
worked this time.  (Now I can print TeX output!)

Thanks for your help!
