There seems to be quite a bit of interest in Sytos Plus (for OS/2) and the devices
that it supports.  I hope someone finds this of enough interest to justify the
typing...

Typos are probably mine.  Poor formatting is a result of using vi (which I'm not
proficient with).  Lack of device capacity and media type are due to my laziness.

There is a way to specify default directories...Just edit the te2.ini file and
look for the part that sets the upload/download/home directories on te2.  That
should do it.  BTW, TE/2 is quite good (for crippleware).  In fact, that's what
I'm using right now.  It good for remaining permanently logged onto a line since
it doesn't sap the CPU like DOS comm programs do.

I can't get Deskpic to work if a Win-OS2 session is running, not even in a
window.  The best I can do is to get a blank screen, but nothing else.

Is there a way to change this, or is this the best that it can do with the
Win-OS2 sessions?  I've got just about all the "VIDEO_" settings turned off.

Thanks in advance.

Look out for emtex\texinput\dvips.tex. Print this on out (first tex it).
It contains the "DVIPS: A TEX DRIVER" document. The biggest thing is to
adjust the emtex\ps\config.ps configuration file to your specific
installation, i.e. the paths. Also you need to pick up the system's need
for environment settings. Then it should be running. I did it recently,
took me 1/2 day to figure out everything.

Try using the new commpak.dll if your not already.  When I first tried it
i had the same problem, and when I tried it again I had the new DLL file
and now it works fine.

Where can one get DeskPic?  Is it FTPable or is it commercial?  Any

Organization: INFOPLUS support, Wheeling, IL

  I recently upgraded from Quicken/Windows 1 to version 2. I had Quicken set
up under OS/2 as a seamless Window. Now, for some strange reason, the icon
is wrong. It is displaying as a left pointing triangle. It should be a
mostly green Quicken icon.
  If I start up a 'generic' WIN-OS2 session, and start Quicken 2 there, the
icon is fine.
  I went into QW's Settings, and tried to change the icon. It wouldn't do
it. I even tried to create a new entry (by peeling off a Program template.)
It, too, displayed the wrong icon.
  I'm running the GA release, with some of the newer pieces. I haven't
received the CSD yet.

TCP/IP for os/2 is also made by IBM. If you have access to the
educational discounts, you get the whole deal for less than $300. This
software is pretty good (although LaMail, the mail reader is below

    Actually, it is version 1.02 of commpak2.dll that I'm using - it hasn't
behaved any differently from 1.01 for me. I still find it interesting that
the trick to getting it to work for me is to deprive TE/2 of processor time,
when one would expect the problem to require the opposite. I wish all

I had this exact problem when I installed the beta.  However, it went

1024x768x256.  I installed the drivers manually, 'unpack'ing them from
the driver disks to a display directory, which I added at the front of
my libpath.  I made a few changes to my config.sys (none to any OS/2
.ini files) and the system.ini file in my winos231 directory.

The 'recipe' I used was in a .dsp file on the second disk.  I can provide

Hi.

I am having a strange problem with TE/2 and its dialing directory.  If
I dial using it, I can't connect to the system I call into after a
connection has been negotiated.  So I get CONNECT 57600 and then
nothing I do has any effect, until OS/2 shuts TE/2 down announcing
that something is wrong with COM2.  Mind you, I have no problems if I
just dial ATDT #######, only when using the dir.  I have checked
settings, everything seems the same between the entry in the dir and
my normal setup.  Note that when the com port goes, its gone until I
do a cold boot.  Obviously, it is no great hardship to type out the
phone number I want to call, but I am curious what the problem is.  

Information:  OS/2+CSD (didn't see the problem before upgrading, but
there were a lot of other changes at the same time, including site
change, modem change, mb change, and I usually type out the no.
anyway), Zoom V.32bis modem (new, with new ROMs).

Nope. I actually reran the command that dirman produced and it was fine. The
zip macro works and the zip and unzip binaries are both from the same place.
Does dirman hold the file open in some way that upsets OS/2 and thus the

I just talked with CADKEY Inc. and they've got their beta of CADKEY
5.04 available next week.  I'll get it and report.

>My OS/2 system is now complete! :-)

As will mine! (Except for that pesky program called Interleaf 5 DTP
software).

In the archive PSPM2.ZIP on Hobbes that is supposed to be a graphical PS,
there are three executables and no documentation... PSPM2.EXE seems to
work but PSPM.EXE and PS$.EXE just lock, it seems... What are these other
two exe's for?

Thanks in advance...

I have had relative success running programs and games under OS/2, but a few
have caused problems...

Wolfenstein 3D, though it works fine originallt (v1.1), when I install the 
extra 5 missions, the system crashes completely (freeze) when the line showing
loading of vswap is almost done...

Falcon 3.0 will not install or run on my system?, do I need to use a booted
DOS machine, my OAK Video prevents that from working... Not to mention that
I cannot run (on another computer) himem.sys in a booted dos session.

Grand Prix Unlimited makes massive pauses whenever my tires squeak or I go off
the road... I was able to change a setting to fix the pauses, but then the
sound for that part wouldn't work?

Untima Underworld crashes itself if I switch away from it while it is in the
actual game (not the title screen). This happeded with background exec. on,
which I want...

Sim City messes with the system when I switch away, I have to wait quite a
while after pressing ALT-ESC for the desktop to appear and even longer for
the desktop to start moving.

Xtree Gold causes an instant IPE upon excecution.

Where can I found the OS/2 hosted version of Microsoft C++ 7.0? I thought it 
was available on hobbes, but I couldn't find it.
