The XGA drivers in the SP appear to be bad.  I've had the same or worse
problems with the XGA support.  As had my SE.

The new drivers in the 2.1 Beta are supposed to be much better.

I am currently on the phone with Level 2 Software Support.  Hopefully,
they will be able to grant access to get new drivers.

Did you try one wait state?  I have the same hardware and have not seen
that error and I'm at one wait state.  My problem is DOS,  QEMM pukes every

In the above passages, read: COM.SYS when COM02.SYS is mentioned.
COM02.SYS is specific to PS/2s running OS/2 1.x.  COM.SYS is the OS/2
2.0 COM driver.

Extended Services 1.0 was designed to run on both OS/2 1.3 and OS/2
2.0, so I suppose documenting ES presents a bit of a challenge.

Well, not working with an 851x, but I've used both a XGA and now a XGA/2
card with my model 95 together with a Nanao T560i without ANY kind of
problems with both GA and SP !!!

I've only used 1024x768x256, though - but then again why use less!?

Hi,

I just got myself a new monitor and ran in to trouble installing
the Trident 800x600 (16/256) drivers. It appears that the vertical
scan frequency isn't  set right. My screen is only half of its
normal hight.
I didn't have this problem before with my old monitor. The only change
is the old one being interlaced at 1024x768 and the new one is
non-interlaced. I had to remove a jumper on the video (8900c) board
to accomodate the higher frequencies.

Anyone seen this before?

I like HyperAccess/5 (commercial).  There's also TalkThru (Software
Corp. of America), ChipChat (Cawthon Software), REXXTerm (Quercus),
Dynacomm Asynchronous (FutureSoft), and perhaps some others.

On the shareware side, there's no one standout.  Some like PMComm.
Others like TE/2.  Others prefer C-Kermit (perhaps with M2Zmodem, the
external Zmodem protocol).

BTW. The Enhanced Mode support only works with WinOS/2 apps that have been
migrated to the WPS. The full-screen WinOS/2 session in the Command prompts
folder seems to think it isn't WinOS/2 at all.
 
For any migrated WinOS/2 app, the Open Settings, Session will reveal a
"Win-OS/2 Settings" button. For the full screen session, you only get a "DOS
Settings" button and no Win_Runmode setting with in it. I have not figured out
how to get this session into Enhanced mode.
 
I migrate the Progman.exe to the WPS and run seamless WinOS/2 in Enhanced mode programs from
there.

Normally IRQ 5 is free (LPT2, which isn't in a lot of systems).  Set
it for COM3, IRQ 5.  Then, using the advice in the FAQ List, add the
appropriate parameters to your COM.SYS and VCOM.SYS lines in
CONFIG.SYS.

If that isn't clear enough, please post a follow up.

Well, after much dabbling, I found out why my tasks get slowed to a halt
(dos tasks that is), when using even a 1200 baud modem to do a download.

It seems that OS/2, during communications, decides a task is IDLE
if no keys are being pressed.  Hence, when I would go to do a dir,
it would SLOWLY print it out.  WHen i would go launch a DOS program,
it would take forever to load.

However, if I hold down a key during a DIR/Program load, the programs
go with no problem, as if nothing was being downloaded.

Now, trying to turn off IDLE sensing did not fix this.

my thanks to all the people who responded to me.

My only problem is now, HOW DO I TELL OS/2 my tasks are IMPORTANT,
even though I am not pressing a key!?!?!?!?  The people who did wordprocessing,
etc while downloading didnt have a problem, because they are hitting
keys.  However, When I download in the background, I may be compiling something
under dos.  If I dont hold down a key in the compiler session, It will basically
freeze until the transfer is over.  This is SERIOUSLY annoying.  Right now,
it means I really CANT multitask DOS apps during a transfer.  And
believe it or not, I still have to code DOS apps too.

If anyone at IBM is listening:  Who made the decision to declare a process
idle if no keystrokes are being generated???  Thats the same thing MSWindows
does, and is a cop out.  Why didnt you run some kind of algorythm to check
to see if the program is calculating, etc, versus sitting in a readkey loop??
It is causing me serious problems.  

If IBM doesnt fix this soon, Its off to the next OS, but hopefully, they
WILL fix it.

I haven't tried this yet, but I remember that when I first got it (under

think?) because it didn't like the way 5 worked with UMB's and DOSHIGH.
Try disabling all EMS,XMS and UMB OFF first. That might work too.

And the "SET-thing" for (only) DOS session should better go in AUTOEXEC.BAT
if you want to keep DOS (plus WINOS2 full screen) and OS/2 with different

BTW: of course "specific DOS sessions" make use of their own CONFIG.SYS

An excellent idea for a future version of OS/2.

In principle it should be fairly easy to implement.  One would need a
monospaced ATM typeface (Courier, for example) to accomplish this
feat.

(I suspect a third party could do it pretty easily as well.)

I had my system set up (OS/2 2.0 without SP) with an ATI Graphics Ultra,
but moved the card to another machine.  Now of course when I start OS/2
on that machine, it complains with an error about the video ... it now
has an ATI VGA 1024 (VGA Wonder) so of course it can't do the 8514/a that
the Ultra (and OS/2) were configured for.

How can I get OS/2 to a bootable state again?  I've tried booting from
the installation floppy but don't see anything there that would help
(but i don't really know what I'm looking for).  I assume there is a 
video driver file I can just copy over to C:\os2\system or something.

I've had the opportunity to have a good look at the OS/2 2.1 beta.
 
Notables:
 
- good SVGA support. I had to do the install, then run the Selective install
for SVGA only and it prompted me to choose between 640x480x256, 800x600x256,
1024x768x256 and a couple of others for my Trident 8900c. 

- C-ROM support: Toshiba, Sony, Hitachi, Panasonic, Texel(never heard of
them), CD Technologies, IBM and NEC.

- SCSI support. Adaptec - looks like everything from 1510 - 1744, IBM PS/2
SCSI, DPT PM2011 and 2012, and a whole pack of Future Domain adaptors: 1660,
1670,1680, msc700, 850IBM, 860, 870, 880, 700EX.

- Printers. Lots of them. The HP DJ500, 500C, 550C, LJ4 and LJ4 PS standout.
There is also a Panasonic KXP-2123 in Epson LQ860 mode driver.....was this a
problem before?

The WPS is noticeably faster. 
 
The FAX/PM applet is nice - though limited. Haven't got it to work with my
Supra yet, but I have only tried one driver of the several on offer.
It will send one page for you.
 
Win-OS/2 3.1 runs in stabdard or enhanced mode. I have not been able to change
the full screen one in the command prompts - it lacks the Win-OS/2 Settings
button and has the DOS Settings button instead - but any migrated Win-OS/2 app
will have the Win-OS/2 settings button and you can change it there. When you
check out Help, About Progam Manager, it say that Win-OS/2 is running in 386
Enhanced Mode. 
 
When I tried to run an OS/2 command.com in a DOS window under a Program Manger
runnig seamless on the WPS....my system locked up solid. I thought I might be
pushing my luck a bit there. Seamless DOS under seamless Windows might be
asking a bit much. Especially since it is completely unnecessary.
 
That's all for tonight.
