Howdy Everybody:

Yesterday I sent out a request asking for a FAQ sheet for Xinu, what
types of machines it works on, it's availability for the MicroPDP
11/23, etc.  I also gave an address of chuck@apache.dtcc.edu which I
found probably won't work - FIGURES.

If you can help me on this, please just post it on this newsgroup
until our system gets configured correctly one of these years (it's
new).

Thanks AGAIN in advance...

Subject: Xinu for the MicroPDP 11/23??
Organization: Delaware Technical & Community College
Date: Wed, 14 Oct 1992 19:13:18 GMT

Howdy Xinu newsgroup folks:

Please forgive my ignorance as I have only just started reading your
newsgroup!

I was recently given a MicroPDP 11/23 (model number 11C23-H) and have
found that unfortunately, Digital Equipment is still updating the
MicroRSX Operating System that it originally came with, making it
beyond my reach financially.

Is there a FAQ sheet telling which machines Xinu works with?  I'm not
quite sure which CPU I have although naturally I have reason to believe
it's an LSI-11/23 *TYPE* of cpu (without ripping it apart, I believe
module M8189 is the CPU but it's not listed in my book).

If any of you folks have a FAQ sheet for Xinu or even know anything
about this machine I was given, I'd certainly appreciate it.  It seems
a shame to just let it sit and rot away in my room when it only needs
a hard drive, console, and O/S (as far as I know!).

Thanks very much in advance for your help and please email to...

Has anybody out there in net land seen or had the following problem.

Running windows (no this isn't the problem) with LanMan 2.1. When
starting windows it does not offer a login dialog (yes, I'm not already
logged onto the network). It also does not have any of the network
services available (connect devices, etc.). The network works fine from
DOS directly and keeps all connections made from DOS once your in
windows.

Another "symptom" is that when Program Manager is done loading it
displays an error about one of it's libraries "is dammaged." After
clicking on the OK (the only button) windows runs fine (just no
network).

Any sugestions?

Sound bit rate compression (coding) schemes work by exploiting features
of hearing perception and in the case of speech, the speech production
process as well. Imperceptable (or not very perceptable) information is 
discarded. Thus the quality may degrade slightly or greatly, depending on the 
complexity of the algorithm and the amount of compression. A low bit rate 
coding scheme designed for speech may fail dismally with non-speech sounds 
such as music and the weird sounds some people love. 

It does not work in such a way that the original wave can be reconstructed 
exactly, as is the case with PKZIP, Stacker, etc.  If you try the latter on 
speech or music, compression is very small (down to say 90% if you are lucky). 

Recent coding techniques suitable for general sounds including music (e.g. sub 
band coding) have generally been aimed at higher qualities suitable for radio 
transmission. They would have to have their parameters re-optimized to make
them worthwhile for use with PC .WAV files (typically 8bit @ 11 kHz). It could 
be done though.

Maybe I'm just lucky (for once), but I've been running happily with the
640x480x256 drivers in PARAD31.ZIP.  I believe I downloaded mine from
the wuarchive mirror directory rather than directly from cica.

	MMWD480.DRV  95936  03-22-92  12:08am
	NMMWD480.DRV 95936  03-22-92  12:13am

The only driver in this set that doesn't work for me is the 800x600x16
driver (the video works fine, but it interferes with printing):

	SVGA800.DRV  72272  12-11-90   5:46pm

The Windows-supplied SuperVGA driver, fortunately, gives this mode and
seems to run just fine.

My machine is a 386SX-16 compatible with built-in Western Digital
Paradise SVGA (WD90C11 chip).

Assuming that the spelling of "Flexcashe" is a typo, this is indeed an
ALR machine.  I have a FlexCache 25386, which I would expect to have
the same BIOS (Phoenix), and it runs Windows 3.1 fine.  In fact, it
seems to run ANYTHING just fine -- I've had OS/2 up on it, as well.
The DT indicates a desktop variant (these were 'normally' tower
machines).

Try for a local dealer first.  If you were here in Dallas I could tell
you who to check with.

VBNews - how about it ?

I am thinking about compiling a newsletter as a source of Visual Basic-orientated material from the InterNet and associated Nets. The idea is to have a central and up-to-date list of what's available for FTP, and where to get it, and to provide fuller des
resting VB stuff .
ALL KINDS OF CONTRIBUTIONS WILL BE GRATEFULLY WELCOMED, ESPECIALLY :
	- New sources that aren't mirrors of nearby (net-speaking) existing sites
	- Info on new Shareware/PD/Demo kit (e.g. VBX's)
	- "How To" tips on using the Windows API functions to get at features unavailable 		   directly in VB.

The newsletter would probably be done using Window's WRITE as it's the lowest common denominator, and distributed in ZIP'ped-UUencoded format.
Distribution would be in one of several ways :
	- The usual upload to an FTP site (a bit hidden, but see next line)
	- announcements in comp.os.ms-windows.announce of new issues & where to FTP
	- mailing me, and I'll send out the FTP-site details when each issue is ready.

So, is it vaible? E-mail me with suggestions/encouragement/abuse,

Hello,

I found an UltraStor driver for my ESDI controller that is supposed to allow

although I've followed the installation docs and changed some settings in my
SYSTEM.INI file, when I run Windows it quits after the Windows screen with
an error message that it could not load the 32bit driver becuase it already had
one loaded. I'm not sure how to remove the 32bit driver from the SYSTEM.INI
file so that it is not loaded (MS version) and so I can use the Ultrastor 
version.

Any hints?

Hi netlanders,
I'd like to get some detailed information on the following settings and
sections:

SYSTEM.INI:
[386enh]
HighFloppyReads=
Global=
Local=

[boot]
display.org=

[display]
svgamode=

[RebootExclude]

[Debug]


WIN.INI:

[Compatibility]

[Network]
Restore=


Any help is greatly appreciated. Can someone please give me explanations
on these sections and entries ? (Description, allowed values, how to change).

Thanks in advance, Guenter

I may be mistaken but I think this is one of ALR's 20MHz 386 machines (circa 
1988 or so).  You may be have a problem with the BIOS.  Contact ALR for more 
information (check some of the PC mags for an ad with their number).  There 
may be a local dealer near you...
