Hi,

I have been having a few problem with my system lately, mainly
with the displays. My system is: a 386 clone, 8MB ram, ATI Wonder
XL, Hercules Graphics Card Plus, Everex Everefax 24/96. I use DR-
DOS 6.0, 4DOS 4.01, QEMM 6.01 and DESQview 2.42.

1.    When I use program that display graphic text (EFAX, Quattro
      Pro 4.0) some characters appear garbled or don't appear at
      all. This does not always happen if I start the program
      directly from DOS, but will always happen after I start
      DESQview (even if I quit DESQview and return to DOS).

2.    My mouse will leave mouse dropping in Xtree Gold. This will
      not happen if I set virtualize to yes, but then Xtree Gold
      will bleed to the foreground window.

3.    If I switch from Telemate, the DESQview menu will display,
      but all processes will hang, and require a cold reboot.
      This problem will only occur if I use stealth.

4.    WordPerfect will not use the RAMfonts I load at the startup
      (I use it on the monochrome monitor). I use the HGC driver,
      but in Normal Characters Only Mode. If I use the Save Font
      Mode, WP uses it's own font (the hebrew ones are awful) and
      trashes the VGA.

DEVICE = C:\DOS\DV\QEMM\QEMM386.SYS RAM DMA=32 FR=C000 ST:M
DEVICE = C:\DOS\HIDOS.SYS /bdos=AUTO

NE> Copyright 1988-91 Wolfram Research, Inc.
NE> Abnormal program termination: Page fault
NE> CS:EIP = 000Ch:00000134h

One of our Testing Department had the following to say about
Mathematica:

Mathematica Version 2.0.3
For 386 MS-DOS 386/7 Version
Single Machine License

Mathematica for DOS is a protected mode program using Phar Lap 386 DOS
extender.  It is compatible with QEMM386 5.0 - 6.0 with some exceptions.

Mathematica incorporates a password protection scheme that insures that
it is run on a single CPU only.  This involves recording ROM signatures
and storing this information to a file called MATHPASS.  This is not
compatible with QEMM 6.0's ST:ealth features.

QEMM386 6.0 users should disregard instructions given in the Release
Notes for Mathematica Version 2.0 pamphlet.  Before running MINSTALL, it
helps to have these QEMM parameters in effect:

     DEVICE=C:\QEMM\QEMM386.SYS RAM FR=D000 EXT=3096

Mathematica installation should proceed normally and the user can 
remove the EXT=3096 when completed. 

It appears that Mathematica will not run with the EMS Page Frame at E000
reporting a Page Fault Error.  This actually is a Phar Lap error
message.

Adding STealth parameters will cause Mathematica to ask for the password
information after each command prompt.  Remove ST:M or ST:F then reboot
when running Mathmatica with QEMM 6.0.

DESQview 386 Notes:

Mathematica can be run and multitasked in DESQview 386.  Here are 
some suggested settings to use:

     Memory Size (in K)            500
     Writes Directly to Screen     Y
     Displays Graphics             Y
     Virtualize Text/Graphics      Y

Advanced Options:
     Maximum Program Size          800
     Maximum Expanded Memory       3096 
     Close on Exit                 Y
     Uses Math Coprocessor         Y

What is there about mwm that you were hoping to retain by avoiding DWM?

I also have purchased mwm, but have it only in case one of our 
customers report a problem using our products (x client apps) in
conjuction with QD's mwm.

Subject: Frozen mouse in DVX when saving memory
From: DIXONW@arizvm1.ccit.arizona.edu (Bill Dixon)
Date: Wed, 30 Dec 92 13:41:07 MST
Distribution: world,local
Organization: University of Arizona

    After following David Granz's procedure for saving mouse memory by
placing it in the process space of the server (see FAQ A22), my mouse
has a tendency to freeze up, but only under certain circumstances. It
seems to occur only after opening a window running WP5.1. The mouse
arrow still appears in the upper right corner but will not move. Within
WP the block mouse will move; shutting down WP has no effect on the
arrow mouse.
    I realize the procedure outlined in the FAQ A22 is not supported by
QOS so perhaps I will just load the mouse normally to recover from this
problem. Has anyone else tried this technique with similar results?
Anyone have suggestions on a fix (other than loading the mouse normally)?
    Thanks.

I have an X client that will consistently hangup DV/X.  
I need advice as to how to isolate the particular X protocol
interaction that is causing this failure.  Is there any
advice that might pertain to fault isolation techniques
for this sort of scenario?  Perchance:
   1) can I trace the X protocol flows within DV/X ?
   2) is there a "debug" mode that DV/X can support that

1) There is a DOS version of BDFTOSNF on the Quarterdeck BBS at (310)
314-3227.  This will explain what you need to know.

2) To my knowledge, DESQview/X does not support .PCF fonts (these are
fonts, right? :) )

3) DESQview/X does not support scaled Microsoft Windows.  It does
support scaled DOS text windows, however.

4) DESQview/X supports Adobe Type 1 fonts; I don't know how (if) it
supports Adobe Type 3 fonts.

5) To comment on the DESQview/X font system could take a sentence or a
book.  I'll start by a sentence that recommends a book: The DESQview/X11
Toolkit Roadmap has a detailed explanation of DESQview/X's font
technology.  If you'd like more information here, we'd probably be more
informative in response to a more specific question.  Please ask away!

Sometimes they are mentioned in read.me files - Zortech's C compiler
used to be good in this regard.  I agree with your philosophy that
fixing them is more important than documenting them - however a quick
mention that something is known about and is being worked on is often
helpful.

Again - agreed.  That's why I described it as a whinge on my part rather
than anything more negative.

When I used DV/386, I configured the Learn "quoting key" to be the top
left corner symbol which appears on UK 102 key keyboards.  This is
because I use MKS toolkit and TeX every day and both programs require
the use of the "`" key.  It is inconvenient and error prone to have to
press this key twice and I have little use for the Learn facility.

Page 104 of the DVX Users' Manual says "The Learn key and the Quoting
key (as well as other DESQview/X system keys) may be redefined in the
DESQview/X Setup program."

I have found the place in Setup where the Learn key can be redefined but
not one for the Quoting key.  Have I missed something or can the key
really not be redefined in Setup?  If it cannot, is there a patch which
will allow me to redefine the key?

DVX 1.02 (without Motif).

It isn't Motif.

This is not the point anyway.  I'm not arguing about the relative merits
of the various window managers.  I simply want to have a fixed version
of the software I bought.  Saying "Motif is not as good as DWM" is not a
solution.

I'm glad someone else has bought Motif.  I was starting to think that I
was the only one.  I too like to have consistency between my clients'
configurations and the one I use.  Hence my purchase of mwm.

The DESQview API tools are now available direct from Quarterdeck at the
following prices. They are not available at these prices through resellers.

API Reference Manual        $25
API Toolkit - BASIC        $100
API Toolkit - C            $100
API Toolkit - Clipper      $100
API Toolkit - dBase        $100
API Toolkit - Pascal       $100

Each complete toolkit includes the API Reference Manual, specified language
library, API Panel Design Tool, and API Debugger. The individual libraries
are not available seperately.

(FWIW, we used to sell these packages for $500, but when we released the
GNU C/C++ libraries for X, it was decided to drop the price for the classic
API libraries, as part of an effort to encourage general DESQview development)

According to the December 14 _PC WEAK_, it's due in 2Q93.
Some points:

  - data compression to effectively double HD size.
  - Memory mgt w/"viewing tools and 'hang' protection"
  - Full backup, compare, and restore capabilities for DOS and Windows.
  - Anti-virus TSR
  - Pop-up TSR that starts the network, connects, disconnects and
    browses the servers.
