Subject: Restoring a mis-arranged desktop
Summary: Restore a desktop via kill program
Organization: University of Illinois at Urbana
Date: Sat, 12 Dec 1992 19:08:20 GMT
Keywords: Desktop, WPS, KillEm

Many people have had the annoying experience of having the desktop rearranged
to their dissatisfaction (e.g., via the 'Arrange' option of the desktop menu).
I found that the thread-killing programs, such as PStat PM2 and KillEm, work
well in restoring the desktops.  Simply, kill the PMshell thread.  The WPS
will be killed, then come back up with the same desktop arrangement as at
boot.

This method is much faster than rebooting, and other processes are not
disturbed by the kill.

LANtastic Server will not currently work under OS/2 2.0.  Client,
however, works fine given the caveats in the README.

Artisoft has said they are working on an OS/2 version.  I would
contact them to ask about participating in any beta program.

One option might be to convert over to TCP/IP (I believe Artisoft has
a straightforward TCP/IP upgrade).  Then, on the IBM side, you can use
IBM's TCP/IP or FTP Software's TCP/IP packages, for example.  That
route is a good one if you ever want to connect to workstations,
minicomputers, mainframes, Macintoshes, etc. -- it is just about the
only networking protocol spoken fluently by virtually all systems.

Hi, I have a problem when running OS/2 full scrren session with the Trident
8900c video card...hopfully someone can help me on this.

When I start a full screen os/2 session, I get a some corrupted screen
with something this:

[[DD ]] (or soemthing like that) which was suppose to be the D drive
prompt...all the characters are like doubled up and some of the 
characters are missing...

I am currently using the 16-bit tridetn 1024x768x256 video drive and 
the dos full screen seems to be fine (but with the original display.dll
that came with the GA version, the dos full scrren was also messed up)

also, I seem to have trouble switching between full screen graphics 
program and WPS, whenever I switch from a full screen graphics program
to WPS and back, the graphics for the other program is all messed up
no way of refreshing it...so I had to swtich back to WPS and kill it 
from there...(this problem also exist for Win-os2), does anybody have 
the same problem??

I don't know if the hardware will have anything to do with these problems
but here's what I got

Tridetn 8900 C2.1 card
8 meg SIMM
130meg IDE (DOS on C, OS/2 on D, Swapper.dat on E)
85meg SCSI
386-40

Please direct all replies to JLZ@SONATA.CC.PURDUE.EDU, as I am usually

A friend of mine had the same problem. He went back to the shop he got the
9-chip simms from and simply swapped them for some 3-chip simms (I knew the
vendor needed the 9-chippers for the 486-50's because the 3-chippers cause
lock-ups in the fast PC's).
 
His TRAP problems disappeared completely as soon as he made his RAM uniform.
It is a basic rule that mixing RAM is something you try and get away
with.....not recommended practice.
 
Mixing RAM has always been a no-no. The consequences may be unacceptable to
you.....but the solution is pretty clear. BTW.....now is the time to re-sell
your 4 meg of odd RAM (whichever 4 you choose) because the US duty fight with
the Koreans has pushed the price of RAM up a bit.....you should be able to
recover most of the cost of the 4 new Megs.

When I did this, I made the new drive the master and the old drive the slave.
 
I re-installed OS/2 into a new C: partition on the new master drive. I then
used Xcopy to copy all the other partitions. It worked fine....though none of
them were bootable. 

I woul recommend that you re-install the DOS and OS/2 partitions to your new
drive. This will ensure that your new drive letters for these partitions -
*especially* the OS/2 system partition! - will remain the same. DOS doesn't
matter so much.

Then just xcopy your files to whereever you want them.

I recently put the WinOS2 3.1 beta from the PDK on top of my GA+SP
installation.  Things looked normal, BUT... I had to reset the default
"Open" action for many icons (ie., RMB/Open/Icon_View was no longer the
default doubleclick... had to fix the Menu stuff in RMB/Open/Settings).
This was only a minor inconvenience (although it had me scared when
doubleclicking OS/2 System didn't do anything!).

More importantly, I had a "DEVICE=D:\OS2\VDISK.SYS 4096 256 256" set up,
that no longer initializes!  A SYSXXXX error appears that complains there
are "not enough resources" to create the RAM disk.  Bushwah...I have 32MB of
RAM on board.  More than plenty.  Reducing the size of the virtual disk had
no effect, as did moving it around in my CONFIG.SYS.  Ideas?

I agree.
But this might still not be a universal problem. I have a system (486/33 clone)

This question is answered in the FAQ List, but, to elaborate,
IFS.../CACHE is for HPFS and DISKCACHE is for FAT.  The caches are

I downloaded thr new "official" trident 32 bit drivers off the IBM NSC BBS, 
and had no problems installing them according to the instructions included.
They seem really fast, but I've noticed a few bugs:

1. Switching back and forth between a windows full screen session and OS/2,
the bottom 1" of my display is not getting refreshed.  Maximizing a window
forces a redraw, so I can live with it, especially since I expect to be
using seamless windows most of the time, but it is annoying.

2. After fiddling with the fonts in a dos window session (containing
Norton Commander), and then using the top left botton to close the window
(instead of closing the program itself), OS/2 locked up.  I hit Ctrl+Esc
and waited a while, but no dice.  I had this happen twice while I was trying
to find a font I could see (the old trident fonts were MUCH easier to
read than these new single pixel wide ones).

The drivers are so nice, otherwise, that I think I'll stick with then a while.
If anyone has any thoughts about the above problems, please let me know.

Oh! I neglected to mention that I am using the 800x600x256 mode.

Thanks in advance.

The Radius XGA-2 card will RETAIL (not "List") for $499 because IBM wants
to bleed Radius for licensing fees. Thus, IBM screws over Radius, who 
will lose a lot of sales (me, for one), the typical OS/2 customer who
wants a faster system, and themselves all at once.

IBM is to be congratulated on yet another brilliant marketing scheme.

This is clearly a good example why Windows NT presents such a threat to
the upper level OS market. Microsoft might just care about it's customers
(unlike Big Blue) and take out the market right out from under them.

Anybody know where I can get an NT beta???

THE QUESTION.

Also, are the folks at IBM Toronto labs up to allow inline assembler with
the next release of C++ Set/2

Can I buy IBM Macroassembler for OS/2

Merci d'avance !

   In other windowing environments, it is possible to change
the 'focus' ( the active window ) by simply positioning the mouse
in the window without having to click. I am using a program which
can become confusing if you move out of the window to do something
and then have to click twice (once to change focus, then once to
execute a command) to get back.

Any information would be appreciated. I didn't see any reference to this
in the FAQ. Please reply via e-mail to: goldfarb@tomcat.rd.ray.com
