SIO version 1.10 contained a serious bug and should be replaced
immediately. The most common symptom of the bug was trap 000e.
Another symptom was inordinate system slowdown when comm is
active.
Registering users now receive a Technical Reference Manual for
SIO. In addition to being a programmers reference manual, the
Technical Reference Manual documents some advanced features of
SIO that are not documented in the Users Manual. THE TECHNICAL
REFERENCE MANUAL IS ONLY AVAILABLE IN PRINTED FORM. Currently
registered users that wish to receive the SIO Technical Reference
Manual should order the "Upgrade on disk", see ORDER.TXT.
The basic "no disk" registration option has been eliminated and
the price for the driver set has been reduced. VX00 is no longer
charged for separately. The introduction of the manual caused
shipping and material costs to jump out of sight. A shipping and
handling charge will be added to the next release of SIO (not
this one). This makes me regret the wise crack in the previous
READ.ME about shipping and handling.
Users may now register SIO via CompuServe's SWREG feature (GO
SWREG). SIO's Registration ID is 1259.
Thanks to Guy Scharf, sysop of the OS/2 Vendor Forum on
CompuServe (GO OS2AVEN), SIO is now supported in section one
(Other Vendors) of that Forum. You can enter support questions
about SIO in section 1 of the OS2AVEN Forum and be fairly assured
of a response. Messages entered into the Forum concerning SIO
should be addressed to 71154,575.
This release of SIO supports PCMCIA communications ports, which
are removable. Many comm application programs are not able to
cope with comm ports being removed while they are active. Thus,
the results of removing a PCMCIA modem while a comm application
program is still active is unpredictable. If you must remove
your modem while a comm programs is active, and if you do not
like the results, contact the comm application program's support
department (not me).
Developers that wish to add PCMCIA modem support to their
applications, a free developer tool is available to registering
SIO users and upgrading SIO users.
The PCMCIA simulation tool is only sent on disk. Previously
registered users must order an upgrade on disk (see
ORDER.TXT) to receive the PCMCIA simulation tool.
If you are registering SIO for the first time then simply
specify that you want the PCMCIA simulation tool with you
order.
This release of SIO has an updated REREG.EXE. Registered users
should use the included REREG.EXE to apply registration
information to downloaded versions of SIO.
As of August 20, 1993, all registered users have been sent
registered versions of SIO either on disk or via Email. If more
than two weeks has passed since you registered SIO and you have
not received a registered version, something is wrong. Please
contact us if you have registered SIO and not received a
registered version.
Note that my Internet address has changed to p00321@psilink.com.
Additionally, I am using a new CompuServe ID of 71154,575. I
will continue to use the old CompuServe ID for a while.
