Subject: Solved: QEMM 6.02 Optimize and NETBIND
Organization: Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH), Zurich, CH
Date: Wed, 16 Dec 1992 18:30:57 GMT

My problem was that OPTIMIZE failed with an invalid instruction fault
when the NETBIND utility was executed in AUTOEXEC.BAT.

The real culprit is Microsoft's PROTMAN.DOS driver (version < 2.0C) which
does illegal things with memory. The problem is covered in Quarterdeck's
Technical Note #227; thanks to Henrik Stoerner who sent me that note.

The best solution is to get a new version of PROTMAN.DOS (>= 2.0C).
If this is not possible:

  - Make sure you have at least 33K of contiguous RAM above 640K.
  - Run OPTIMIZE; on the screen titled "Detection Phase", press ESC,
    then F1 to suspend OPTIMIZE and return to DOS.
  - Edit CONFIG.SYS; on the PROTMAN.DOS line, remove the /GS:... and
    /LABEL:... switches, such that the line looks similar to
    "DEVICE=C:\QEMM\LOADHI.SYS C:\LANMAN\PROTMAN.DOS /I:C:\LANMAN"
  - Reboot. OPTIMIZE should now complete normally.

What you're seeing relates to the fact that DESQview can't promise
support for any video mode higher than 640x480 VGA, though we can
usually save and restore 800x600.  Meanwhile, try this:

1) In the Windows window, write a Windows macro that takes you to a
full-screen DOS window.

2) In that full-screen DOS window, press the DESQ key.

3) When you return to that same DOS window, write a DESQview Script that
types the word "exit", and follow it with an {Enter}.

Since the DVP you posted looks OK, I'd say the most likely reason is
that you are running Windows in a mode other than 640x480 16 colors.

Further to this, if I remove the print manager from the startup but set
"vmm" to "y" in dos4gx.cfg, DVX leaves two files open on exit:
"dos4gm.swp" and "dvxs0".

In summary, I now have one whinge and three bug reports.  The software
versions are DVX 1.02 and Motif 1.00.

Whinge:

No cut and paste when using Motif.

Bugs:

1) When "vmm" is set to "y" in dos4gx.cfg, the DESQview print spooler
(printman.exe) will not iconify itself at startup.

2) When "vmm" is set to "n" in dos4gx.cfg, installing the DESQview print
spooler causes "dvxs0" to be left open on exit.

3) When "vmm" is set to "y" in dos4gx.cfg and the DESQview print spooler
is not installed, DVX leaves "dos4gvm.swp" and "dvxs0" open on exit.

None of the bug issues are addressed in the manuals supplied with the
software I bought.  Nor are they mentioned in this newsgroup's FAQ file.
The whinge is addressed in the Quartdeck Motif manual by saying (in
effect) "you can't do it, chum".

Believe it or not, I actually like this software.  Beats the socks off
another MS-DOS windowing program whose name I have temporarily
forgotten.  However, the problems raised earlier have somewhat muted my
enthusiasm.

Let's see.  I think I was the originator of this question, so here it goes.

I am using an internal 2400 baud hayes clone modem.  When I tried to download
with DV/x with Zmodem specifically (the only one I tried) it would just sit
there and send the header continuously.  I didn't notice that DV/x was trying
to optimize the communications or anything of the such.  I was getting errors
everytime that DV/x was writing or reading to the hard drive.  
I do have a UART.

I am running on a 486/33 with an opti chipset, Intel Processor.
not sure about the last one.

Is there any way in DV/X to set the optimize communication/ disallow
swapping/no close on exit options like regular Desqview?

I have no problem running RCONSOLE.  I've got NW311 running, all programs
installed on the server, and I run IPX and NETX from my local hard drive.
I'm running DV/X 1.02, using the standard scaled-dos window settings to
run RCONSOLE.  No problems.  Well, one.  When I run Kermit on a NASI modem,
sometimes RCONSOLE will fail to find the server, or the modem will cease
to exist.  But I never have system hanging problems.

It may be something to do with the versions of IPX.OBJ and NETx.xxx you're
using.  My IPX says:
	Novell IPX/SPX v3.04 (910703)

My NETX says:
	NetWare V3.22 - Workstation Shell (910731)

Maybe you've got something else competing for SPX slots?  I just remembered
that I do have 64 SPX connections defined in my SHELL.CFG, and I also seem
to remember that RCONSOLE.NLM also needs RSPX.NLM, and therefore runs on
SPX connections.

There was an update to WINX. Check the dates of WINX.EXE and WINX\XGLUE.DLL.

If they are still 27 April, you have an old version. The latest versions
are dated sometime in August/September, I seem to remember.

PROTMAN.DOS does some strange things with memory - briefly put, it stores
some things in memory without allocating it. This data is then used by
NETBIND.

I suspect that the OPTIMIZE program happens to clear the memory where PROTMAND
has stored some data, which is why NETBIND crashes. (I had s similar problem
with a virus scanner, that cleared memory before running a virus-check - 
the PC would never get past the NETBIND command).

The problem is fixed in Lan Manager ver. 2.1

I have worked closely over the past weeks with Mark Craig of QOS Tech Support, 
and, although he had very little to do with this particular problem, he has 
done an *outstanding* job and deserves a raise and some cold medicine.  (Just 
thought I'd plug him...)

Actually, PC/TCP 2.1 has altered its configuration method, assigning the 
device drivers into obsolescence.  However, DESQview/X will not recognize 
PC/TCP unless the drivers are loaded.

You must load the drivers (I?CUST.SYS) provided with version 2.1 (for backward 
compatibility while vendors modify their software to deal with the new 
configuration method) in your CONFIG.SYS file, configuring them with 
IFCONFIG.EXE and IPCONFIG.EXE (be warned that some options in version 2.05 and 
before are no longer supported by the 2.1 drivers), and set the 
"use-old-init-scheme" in your PCTCP.INI file to "yes".

Also be warned that you will now have to run IFCONFIG.EXE *before* you load
your Ethernet/Token Ring/etc. driver, and IPCONFIG.EXE *after*, as the kernel
will lock certain parameters after the driver is loaded.

Once this option is active, there is very little in the PCTCP.INI file that
PC/TCP will use (i.e., you cannot instruct the kernel to load portions of
itself into EMS).

Hope that helps.

Ok, things are starting to get interesting now.  If I set "vmm y" in
dos4gx.cfg then printman will not iconify itself automatically at
startup.  If I set "vmm n" in dos4gx.cfg then printman iconifies itself
ok.

Why is this?

I have verified that printman.pif contains the "-iconify" flag.  Other
details will be supplied if needed.

Giles.
