The reason could be that you're using a SuperVGA driver for your
Win-OS/2 full screen session.  With the exception of ATI's new
SuperVGA drivers, OS/2 can't run a Win-OS/2 session in SuperVGA in the
background.  (See your OS/2 README file about this.)

The solution?  You might try just leaving Win-OS/2 full screen running
as you shut down.  (Take it out of the Startup folder.)  Then, when
you start up again, OS/2 will run it (in the foreground).  That will
throw you straight into Win-OS/2, and keep it running.

    This reminds me of something that happened to me a little while back. I
was trying to re-arrange the order of icons in the tree view of my drive C
object. In particular, I wanted a particular directory to be towards the
top of the tree. I tried dragging the directory upwards, but it ended up
being moved *into* the directory I dropped it on to. I tried the same thing
(hoping to move it page by page up the tree until I reached the root directory
where at least it would be in the right directory). Somehow, copies of the
directory were being left behind. So, there were several folders all pointing
to the same contents in my directory tree.
     Going to the command line, each of these directories also seemed equally
valid. I went back to the drive object to delete one of these copies, and
flagged it to not warn on folder delete - big mistake. It got about halfway
through deleting the contents of the folder (all instances at once) when
I realized what was going on when I did the three-finger salute, and booted
DOS.
     Turns out, cross-linked directories were somehow created. Seems like
a very bad bug to me, but this is a strange one. The file system would be
responsible for it, but I can't picture standard system calls made by
PMSHELL ending up with such a result.

YES! The name of this program is WordPerfect! This is really close to
a RTFM-type question, if not quite there.  Set up the printer as
Postscript -- Apple Laserwriter, for example -- then go to (E)dit
printer, (P)ort settings, (O)ther, then select a filename.  Then print
to that printer, and viola, you have ps output.

Although this is not elegant it may be the quickest solution for you. 
Depends on how much you time is worth. Buy a cheap fax card that works 
with PMFAX for your faxes and use the Gateway for telecommunication if it 
is a real high speed modem. I use a cheap zoltrix with PMFAX ABOUT 80.00

I'm using version 1.11v for a few weeks now and didn't have
any problems (I upgraded from the q-Version). The v-version
does no longer use the settings 'rmail' and 'rnews' in the
uupc.rc file to locate the programs, it just looks for
them in the 'PATH' (normal config.sys setting).

I spoke with Mike and he tells me that they are not quite ready to ship

Hi there,
	I know this has been talked about before but I can't seem to find
the solution in the faq, the readme file, or previous posts. I just got 
MathCad 3.1, did the ffix /date thingie to get it installed, and migrated
it to a folder (I also set it up in winos2 fullscreen). Now the problem.
In the first winos2 session that I start MathCad works fine, however if 
I close the winos2 session when ever I try to start Mathcad I get a window
stating "not enough memory... close some windows apps..... try again".
I have GA+SP running, I had no problems with version 3.0, and no problems 
with anything else. It doesn't matter whether I use seamless or full screen
I get the same result. The settings are correct according to the readme file
that came with the SP.

	Anyone with 3.1 working that can tell me what other tweaks it takes?

Thanks for your time

Many people claim that the heat-cool cycle of powering a computer on
and off is much harder on the "solid-state" components than leaving it
on all the time is on the hard drive.

Unless your hard drive is incredibly flaky, it should be safe to leave
it on pretty much all the time.  There is no contact between the head
and the platter, so the only "deterioration" in an idle (but spinning)
drive would be in the rotor mechanism.  I don't think this is a big
concern.

In conclusion, leaving your OS/2 station on is fine.  I would be sure
to check that the vents are clear and the fan is running, though.  ;)

CALL= does not run the application asynchronously.  CONFIG.SYS
processing will not proceed past the CALL= until the process
terminates.  Perhaps this will help.

>Just curious, why do people put a RUN=C:\OS2\MODE.COM statement in CONFIG.SYS?

MODE does more than just set up baud rates.  It also redirects printer
output and activates buffered UART chips.  By placing the statement in
CONFIG.SYS, the changes affect the entire system instead of just one
session.

So far Windoze has great sound support, and Gravis supports a 3.1 driver.

This is the chance for OS/2 to get even better sound - 16 bit wavetable

For what it's worth, Symantec (Zortech's parent company) just sent me
a flyer offering their new, 32-bit OS/2 version of this compiler for
$149. I don't know what the "prerequisites" are for the special price,
but interested parties might want to call Symantec at 1-800-343-4714.
Be sure to specify the 32-bit OS/2 version of the C++ compiler.
