i don't have access to the comp.binaries ( i don't know xactly whjat 
they're called, but i know there's a lot of good files there that i want, 
esp for os/2, so how do i get stuff.
I _do_ have the dos version of uuencode and uudecode.
so as far as i know, i can encode and decode these files, but i have no 
way of getting them.
btw, i am running from a local bbs, not a university unix or vms or 
anything.
i do, however, live near a university vms mainframe, with friends who use 
it directly, so i could, if necc. get stuff thru them....
just askin', also, how to use uuencode and uudecode.
the file i d/l'ed was just a .zip with 2 .exe's in it....
thanx in advance, and please email me as i can't watch .os2.misc _every_ 
day!!!

It is. At least it did yesterday in my specific
DOS 5.00 with some DEC PATHWORKS drivers (running DECnet) loaded.

I don't know that. I have a few suspicions on that
but don't want to elaborate on them to avoid confusion due to non-facts.

I hope the positive answer above helps, though.

When I heard that WIN-OS2 could supposedly run Windows 2.x apps that
Windows 3.x would choke on, I said "Great, I'll see if I can get Balance of
Power to run in a full screen WIN-OS2 session. I've been dying to play
that."

Well, when I do, I get this nebulous "UNEXPECTED DOS ERROR:14" when I try
to run it. Balance of Power is a Windows 2.x app and it was distributed
with the run-time version of Windows (or whatever the name is of the
version that was included with windows apps back then).

Anybody know what the error means or how I can fix it?

Alex,

  The beta test for LAN Server 3.0 (with support for HPFS386 on OS/2 2.0, as
well as other goodies like Peer-to-Peer resource sharing) was announced about
10 days ago.  Someone put a copy of the announcement on this newsgroup, so you
may be able to find it if your news facility has archives going back that far.

Subject: Desktop workspace size, ie VGA etc.
Date: 26 Aug 92 22:30:47 GMT
Organization: Dept. of Computer Science, Michigan State University

I need some advice. I am looking to buy a PC-compatible computer, namely a 486SX
or DX, but I get the shakes when I think of that much hardware being controlled
by MS DOS. I have used pc's but most of my experience has been on sun
workstations with Xwindows and a very *large* color workspace. I don't care a
whit for MSwindows or running their programs, if that will affect any of the 
questions below.

Now for my questions: 
[Please keep your answers sorta untechnical. Im not a hardware guru.]

1) How large can the desktop be in OS2? Im not real familiar with all these
resolution buzzwords, SVGA, S3, XGA, etc. In laymans terms, what kind of
resolutions can I get? 1000x1000? The VGA 640x480 is far too small for me, but I
have heard about problems os2 has supporting video cards. 

(Having looked at this newsgroup I can seen that there still are a number of
problems in this area.) 

2) I am looking at a Gateway 2000 system and a Dell system. Can anyone tell me if
there are any problems with these and high graphics resolutions? The Dell has a
built in video driver, I believe, Is this going to cause me problems?

3) Lastly, does anyone have advice about whether I ought to get a SX or DX? Now,
I know this is a sore issue for many people, (the SX is just a brain-dead DX,
etc) but Im not a 'power user' and an SX seems like it will be powerfull enough
for me, (I still have to use a 286 at work!) unless there is some great advantage
at having the co-processor built in. It was my understanding that the
co-processor had to be addressed directly to be used, ie it has special code
requirements and is not automatically used by all programs. Is this still true?
Will the DX rapidly increase my everyday general graphics performance?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Try opening your print object (Open -> Settings), finding the page
with the list of drivers (two windows, with icons in the upper window
and one selected icon in the lower window).  Click on the IBMNULL
driver in the upper window with mouse button two, and select Open ->
Settings.  Change the form feed control to None.  Close everything up.

That just might do the trick.

I've had OS/2 up and running now for a little while on my Dell 433DE
(EISA) machine with a 330Mb IDE and 16Mb of RAM.  I've been pretty
impressed with it so far, but I'd like to bother the net with a couple
of questions:

1) About these SVGA screen modes.  Yes, I've read the FAQ, but I'm
still confused as to how I change the screen mode of my desktop.  I
think this Dell has an Tseng 4000 local bus video card in it, so I
know there are a few problems, but....  Could someone explain how I
can change to 1024x768 on the desktop, and what 'seamless Windows'
means?

2) If I try to run an OS/2 editor I have (SlickEdit) in full screen
mode, the display is messed up in that the 'top' line of the screen
starts in the middle of the display and it wraps around to the top.  I
tried doing a 'mode' command first (mode co80,50), but it doesn't
change it.  If I do a 'mode co132,25', it does fix it for that mode,
but (a) it won't let me do co132,50 and (b) if I then try 'mode
co80,50', it gets messed back up.  Any ideas?

It sounds like your mail server.  I just ran PING on ftp-os2.nmsu.edu,

Keyboard BIOS, that is. (Not the system BIOS.)

	2) Check the A20 line setting. Although the A20
problem should not happen with OS/2, DOS programs loaded
high may trash the A20, which is connected to the keyboard
controller. Stuck CTRL, ALT, etc. keys are not uncommon
on DOS machines with A20 set wrong. The A20 setting should
be in your system-BIOS setup menu.

	3) Someone also told me that there's a bug in OS/2
somewhere. Find and apply the latest patches around. I haven't
followed this newsgroup all summer, so I don't know if stuck
keyboard is a common problem in OS/2.

As a second question (which probably needed to be asked before the

EA's might well be the problem.  I booted DOS and ran Norton Utilities
on the root directory to munge the names of the ". SF" files, and I was
then able to change their attributes.  You might also succeed with
something like the CHMOD.EXE that comes with the GNU file utils, or with
the built-in ATTRIB command of 4OS2 (haven't tried either of
these--Norton under DOS works.)  Nobody cares which AFC team will have
the honor of losing to the NFC *this* year--the real superbowl will be
between Washington and SF for the NFC championship.  <grin>
