I'm looking for a Video 7 V-RAM VGA driver for OS/2 2.0. Does anybody 
know if it's available and - if yes - where? I'd prefer of course 
public domain or shareware but if this isn't available commercial pro-
ducts are ok as well. Any help appreciated! Please respond via E-Mail 
to "tab@qt.IPA.FhG.de" 

If it's of common interest I'll post a summary of what I got.
Thanks

I found the install manual supplied in hard copy to be very adequate for
installation. I even read it before I installed OS/2. I didn't have any
problems.

In the last week of so I've had a large number of OS/2 crashes. Most of these
have occured when I close applications (OS/2 or otherwise). The entire system
freezes and responds only to the "three-fingered salute". This is really 
starting to annoy me, as currently I'm rebooting possibly 4 times a night. I 
have not installed any of the patches yet,  however I've been running since the 
relase quite happily.
	Has anyone else experienced this ? Any help/ advice welcome.

But this doesn't really answer the question in the subject field.  You

found any way to select a different *font* for a CLI window.  All those

Correct.  The files are in use by the Presentation Manager.  Once PM
is launched, they are in use and can't be replaced.  If you boot an
install floppy to get to a CMD prompt, you can replace them, since PM
won't be active.

I think you can also place a "CALL=C:\OS2\CMD.EXE" at the top of your
CONFIG.SYS (after the HPFS driver!) to get to a prompt before PM loads
and replace them from there.

Right.  The root is first on the LIBPATH.  So when OS/2 looked to open
the DLL files, it opened the ones in the root and ignored the others.
Now the ones in your root are in use.

>Before I try to boot from the distribution disk (and run the risk of wipping
>my boot-up and desktop configuration),

Booting an install disk is proper procedure.  When you are asked to
(on disk 1), press ESC and drop to a prompt.  From there, move the
files to their proper place:

MOVE C:\*.DLL C:\OS2\DLL

Then reboot (CTRL-ALT-DEL)


A more roundabout way might be:

1) Edit config.sys and update the LIBPATH statement so that C:\OS2\DLL
appears before C:\ on the list of directories.  

2) Copy the DLL files to C:\OS2\DLL.

3) Reboot.  Now the ones in C:\OS2\DLL will be active, because the
system will find them first.  You can now delete the ones in the root,
because they won't be in use.

4) Edit config.sys and change your LIBPATH back to what it was.

If you have a SCSI HD controller (!) and an AMI Bios (!) try setting the

Do not use the lowest value (2.5 = max. bus cycle) but use another value 
(3 or 4). This results in a slower system but should help...

In that case, would someone care to explain why it seems that every single
file has extended attributes?!?  I was copying some files that constituted a
DOS game to floppy.  The files totalled less than 720K, but wouldn't fit on
a 720K floppy.  Confused, I looked around, and found a 60K EA file on the
floppy!!!  There's no good way to just delete the sucker, so I had to use
eautil to remove the attributes from each and every file to free up enough
disk space to copy the last file.

This is stupid!  Most of the files were just plain *data*.  There's no
reason for OS/2 to assign extended attributes to these files, but it did.
There's no telling what the EAs were, but the program ran just fine without
them!

Something I didn't originally realize is that you can set the sort order
for each "object type" (File System, Icon, etc...) in a folder's settings
notebook.  Ergo... If you fiddle with the sort settings, you CAN get the
directory tree window to sort the directories & files.  Unfortunately,
I'm not quite sure what settings did it for me!!  Try setting each
individual object type to sort by Name.  Also, setting individual directory
icon-view folders to "Sort Filesystem Type" and everything else to "Name"
will give you a display with all like-type objects grouped, sorted by name.

Sorry this is such a haphazard description...
I'm in a hurry, and aren't quite clear what I did to get this to work myself!

I made a few slips in posting wrt XMS/EMS, UMB's and HMA in specific DOS
sessions.  Just spent a few hours working with it, and strange things
are happening.

I originally that EMS/XMS settings would be controlled by the EMM386.SYS
and HIMEM.SYS lines in the config.sys, rather than the DOS Settings of
the object.  This doesn't seem to be true.

UMB's _appear_, in the sense that they show up under MEM /C, but they
aren't used by the two machines I tested on (generic 486 clone and a
PS/2 M70).  In other words, LH/LoadHigh doesn't really load high.

Ditto with DOS=HIGH.

I'm pretty thoroughly confused right about now.  The EMM386 line works,
but the HIMEM.SYS doesn't -- I don't get any XMS reported by MEM,
despite the fact that HIMEM.SYS reports having loaded in successfully.
The DOS Settings are default and I ought to have 2 MB worth of XMS..

Apologies to the net for the somewhat mis-leading statements I made a
few days ago; I'm sure a few flames are on the way already ;)

I have been running OS/2 2.0 since its release (or as soon after as I got my 
hands on it).  I just changed machines from a 386-33 to a 386-40.  I have 2 
Network cards a SMC Elite 16 and a NE1000.  The second one is for a 
proprietary Telnet application that requires a packetdriver(This is a very 
annoying bug).  I have a Generic TSENG 4000 1 Meg SVGA Card an IDE Card that 
has the serial and parallel ports on it.   I am running OS/2 on the same 
Motherboard at home and I am pretty sure that it isn't the problem. 

The problem I am having is that about 1 out of 3 times on Bootup It will get 
to the OS/2 2 Logo right at the point where it checks the serial ports and 
the modem lights flash and before it loads the network drivers.  I assume 
that this is the point it is executing the first part of the config.sys. 

At this point It just HANGS Solid waiting for hours does nothing I must 
reset the machine and it will boot.  I have applied most of the patches that 
would affect this.  OS/2 LDR file the HPFS.IFS file Hmmm and most of the 
rest of them.   Now for the really wierd part.  IF INSTEAD OF GOING THROUGH 
SHUTDOWN I JUST HIT RESET IT NEVER LOCKS.  I realize the problems this can 
cause but what difference is it if it locks on Boot up and I hit reset or I 
close all windows and I hit reset.   Not Much.  It still has to run through 
the chkdks. (Thank goodness for the HPFS fix).

Any ideas anyone.

Assuming the modem is okay.  Are you ABSOLUTELY SURE that you don't have
an IRQ conflict.  Speaking from experience - I got bit 2 days ago when
I installed a card with the 16550 on COM2 (the card allowed 2|4 for the
16550 and 1|3 for the 16450).  Previously I had been doing all my downloads
from COM1 on the multi I/O card.  Naturally, I forgot about the LAN card
using the IRQ that I put COM2 on.  It was easy to forget because I haven't 
been using the LAN lately (it was primarily used for arpa services to a 
now nonexistent U**X machine).

Anyway, to make a long story short, I fixed the IRQ conflict and the
problems went away.
