Summary: Are they compatible?
Keywords: os2,modems

I can get a real good deal on a 14400 SupraFaxModem internal.  I'm told it
doesn't have a 16550 UART, but has a different, better buffering scheme. 
I don't really care as long as I can use it with OS/2 without problems.
Like I said, I would get it at a really good price, and it's hard to pass up.

Anyone had any experience with the beastie?

It's (800) 365-2642.  But I wouldn't worry.  The December issue was
delayed because the printer left the UPC barcode off the cover, and all
of the printed issues had to be recalled so that UPC stickers could be
pasted on them.

I just got a PAS-16 and a Texel 3024 CD-ROM and have run into problems both in  
DOS and OS/2... I have heard that Media Vision will release drivers for OS/2 in  
Mid-January, but I cannot even get the CD-ROM to run in a DOS session (or  
booting DOS, for that matter).  Media Vision didn't even provide DOS drivers  
for my (or any) CD-ROM (I bought them seperately).  Does anyone know where I  
can get drivers for this QUICKLY... (I want to use my OS/2 2.1 BETA)

The Trident drivers work very well for me (a little slow maybe but at
least I have GOOD 800x600 and 1024x768 256 color drives now!!!).  I've
got an OEM version of the ATI VGAWonder XL (with 1Mb on board) Perhaps
that's your problem. I recall someone here mentioning that these trident
drivers were only for cards with 1 Mb; do you have 1 Mb or 512K?

Also, do you have the 'revised edition'? The file I got from hobbes
was called TRI32NEW.ZIP and the instructions in the readme file had
been revised by someone (Steve someone-or-other I think; sorry whoever
you are, but I'm horrible with names).

Short of that, I don't know what the problem might be.  Sorry I can't
be of any more help.

From: ghdai@vax1.umkc.edu

Organization: University of Missouri - Kansas City
NNTP-Posting-Host: vax1.umkc.edu

I posted a message asking for a printer driver for Fujitsu XD2200 dox-matrix
printer.  Nobody replied.  There is no OS/2 driver, but I have found there
is a driver for WinOS2, though Freeelance Graphics Working Model 1.0 says it's
an old version.

Last time I mentioned that the IBMNULL driver works, but later I found one
thing weird.  OS/2 can only print when my C-Kermit is running, and the C-Kermit
uses a modem configured as COM3 using IRQ5 (I have only one parallel port, LPT1
IRQ7; IRQ5 usually works for LPT2; my COM1 and 2 are assigned to IRQ4 and 3,
respectively and usually.)  When I stop using C-Kermit or COM3 or IRQ5, OS/2
always tells me that the "Printer is Turned Off, Switch it On".

My system has SP applied.  What is really the problem?

I should also mention that you can omit the 9517 monitor from either
of those two systems and subtract $1102.  You are then free to
substitute any monitor you care to -- the NEC you mention is fine.

Right after chkdsk the machine hangs with the following:

Having just checked with IBM again 'to make sure', I find that they've
changed their minds! (hey I don't mind being wrong if good things happen
:-)  IBM Oz will NOT bring in the beta of 2.1 by itself, but they WILL
bring in the Dec PDK CD containing it afterall! :-)  Australian DAP members
can get it by sending a $AUS30 cheque payable to "IBM Australia" to:

Hi all,

I was just playing around with my computer again (gee, guess why I'm a
CS major) and I thought of the following thing: Gee its annoying that
when running a PM application from a windowed session, it doesn't
automatically start up in the background.  Here's how I got around this:

Make the directory \os2\cmd.

Modify your config.sys so that \os2\cmd is the first entry in the path.
Now, for your favorite PM application, make the following command file:

@start full_pathname_of_program %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9

So, I have e.cmd which looks like

@start \os2\e %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9

(is there an easier way than making all the %'s?)

Just a little word of advice.

Steve

Yes, I am using a FD1680 controller with a CDROM external. You need
a high density SCSI 2 cable. You can either buy a cable from
Future Domain (expensive] or get one from your nearby computer store
or mail order cheaper. I have a Toshiba CDROM that has a 50 pin connector.
Hope this helps.

If you have the information I need, would it be possible to include the

am a UUCP site and use FTPMAIL with several days delay after each attempt.

Also, please don't point me to DOS or Windows applications, I already have 
a good Windows one, but would like to use an OS/2-specific one.

Any information you can provide would be very appreciated.  Please
respond via e-mail if possible.

Thanks in advance.

Well, I just got the 2.1 beta CD and started reading the notes that came
with it.  There seem to be references to a sort of "chicken-and-egg"
problem, that makes it sound like you *do* need your current version of
OS/2 in order to install the beta from the CD.  That is, there are
references to needing the CD to be set up and supported (I.e., OS/2
drivers installed and working) in order for the install of the beta from
CD to work.  Have I got this right?  (I hope this is *not* the case, and
that I am misreading things...)

I've found the same thing, generally.  However, I would still
recommend a reformat if you have some odd customization.  The OS/2 2.1
beta seems much better at anticipating existing system configurations,
but there are still a couple kinks that they need to work out.

Does anybody out there has experienced problems printing from WINOS2 to an
HP LaserJet IIID printer?  

I haven't found a specific WinOs2 driver for the HP IIID so I am using the 
HP III driver instead....but when I try to print I always get a line printed
on the top of the page: "/forms 256" on boldface letters.
The document I am trying to print is printer immediately after this line.

Is there a way to supress this line?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am running:
    OS/2 2.00 GA+SP
    IBM MOD 57 SLC
    12MB of ram
    

Thanks in advance.

Hello all,

I tried installing the 10/92 servpak over my OS/2 2.0 ga for the 32 bit
graphics engine and hopefully svga for my paradise video.  After the
install, I never got the welcome folder and the folder opening took 3-4
times longer after the install.  I ended up reformatting the drive and
reinstalling OS/2.  Has this happened to anyone?  Is the servpak worth
installing anyway? 

Thanks in advance,

Michael
