Subject: Install bugs related to ET 4000?
Date: 5 Oct 92 18:37:52 GMT
Organization: pubs


I have had two installation problems, which a friend hypothesizes that
my installation problems could be related to the color board, a Tseng
ET4000 (To The Max).  A service shop has run thorough diagnostics on my
system, so I have some confidence in the other hardware.  This is a
Northgate 386/20, 100-meg drive.

I have tried installing from both 5.25" and 3.5" disks.  The 5"
installation doesn't even get started.  The 3" installation works *only*
if I format my disk with FAT.  When I format with HPFS, I get to about
disk 11, and then the "progress meter" stalls at about 70%.  

I'd appreciate information on this.

Hmmm, I thought it was Phil Katz of PKZIP fame who developed the new 
incompatible format for PKZIP 2.0, and the Info-ZIP Group picked it up (with 
PK's blessing) for their free Zip.

You think you have problems now, wait until PKZIP 2.0 becomes popular!

Mind you, I have the exact same problem here, and it's a major PITA. 
At least there are two simple answers - junk PKZIP 1.2 et al, and either 
upgrade to 2.0, or substitute the free Info-ZIP product.

I need a small utility that will send a few keystrokes to a program that is
running in a window!  I think REXX might do this, if I could capture the input
stream handle for the target window, but I have no clue how to do this.  I
didn't see anything that looked promising on Hobbes.

What I want to do is gracefully terminate a program running in a PM window
under OS/2 1.3 (I can't upgrade until the software server I am running releases
a version that will run under 2.0.  There are lots of utils on Hobbes which
kill the process outright, but I would like to send it the keystrokes to
shut it down a little more gracefully than that...

If anyone knows of such a util, or knows how to go about it in REXX, I would
really appreciate an email note to tell me about it!

i have been trying to run dosv (japanese version of ibm dos for
at bus machines) under os-2.  this version of ibm dos fails
because it cannot load a driver called $font.sys.  the message is
that there is not enough extended memory.  the machine in
question in fact has 6 megs of extended memory and $font.sys will
load happily with 1 meg or less.

my guess is that $font.sys, although written by ibm, does its own
thing with extended memory and cannot find any because it is all
under the control of os-2.  if my guess is correct, where do i
rtfm to find out how to give $font.sys some extended memory of
its own to play with?  if my guess is correct, my second (largely
rhetorical question) is why, given that ibm trumpets the
(alleged) ability of os-2 to run multiple versions of dos, would
an ibm-written (no less) version of dos produce such problems
with os-2????

note!  the issue is not hardware.  the same at-clone runs dosv
bareback with no problem.

I can't get it installed here.
After copying files from the floppies the HD access STAYS on!
This happens for every release of OS/2 I've tried, 1.3, all the 2.0 betas, and the 2.0 release.
When I format a partitiom in the release of 2.0 it happens, then the system becomes unusable, the screen draws, etc, are VERY painfully slow.
I have an Ultrastor 12C ESDI HD/floppy controller with 1MB, wonder if that's the problem.

The PC speaker driver for win31 installed into the winos231/system
subdirectory on my machine.  This means that it should be possible to install
it as a windows device driver by going thru the control panel-drivers-add-
unlisted process and specifying c:\winos231\system as the directory for
the driver.  However, the driver is not recognized at this point unless
an oemsetup.inf file is in the same directory to tell it what to do with
the speaker.drv driver file.  I copied the .inf file that comes with the
zipped win31 package into that directory and it installed fine.  Note:
the speaker driver did not show up in the original list of addable drivers..

I've attached the OEMSETUP.INF file that comes in the speak.exe package
since it is short and it may save someone the trouble of downloading the
file for a driver that they already have.  BTW - the speaker.drv file that
comes with winos231 is the same size and date as the speaker.drv file in
speak.exe.

Well, I sent a letter yesterday asking about the status of the Diamond
drivers for OS/2 2.x to their Compuserve Account.  This was the response.



INCLUDED TEXT-----------------------------------------------------

At this time, IBM has yet to release the 32-bit GRE (Graphics Engine) for
OS/2 2.0.  Until such time, we will not release drivers for any card. 
Drivers written for the current release would have to be re-written. 
Also, IBM has just gone to BETA with a release to include the 32-bit GRE,
but has specifically stated not to do any development of video drivers
with this BETA.  Once the 32-bit GRE and development tools are available,
driver development will continue.

Maybe this explains something I've been seeing.  If I set up an object on the
WPS to run a Windows app and specify in Windows settings to run in 3.1
standard mode, the program will STILL USE 3.0.  I know this because of my
screen colors and ATM loading.  To get running 3.1, I have to tell the program
to run e:\winos2\winos2.com (the winos2.com in the 3.1 directory), with the
program name under parameters, and its directory as the working directory.
This also means that instead of the Windows icon, the object shows the win3.1
icon(the window).  Anybody else run across this?(By the way, I'm using the
Orchid 16-bit drivers, but I don't think this is it, as I remember seeing this
when I was using VGA.

I checked out conio.h and it is not part of a standard Unix setup. It
is peculiar to DOS compilers (and maybe some OS/2 ones). As gcc/2 is
Unix derived there isn't one. You will need to find an alternative.

The os2-include header files are incomplete (no vio type stuff that I
could see) due to the fact that they were taken from a beta toolkit (I
guess). I looked at the license for the production toolkit and it
allows me to ship the header files as part of my application so I will
get a new version out with the next release *if* I do a next release.
I am considering dropping gcc/2 now that emx 0.8e is out.

Correct. For low density disks, you need hardware (available from Central
Point Software). For high density disks, you only need software (available
from a couple of places that I don't remember the name of). I don't know
if any of these work under OS/2.
