XGA.SYS needs to be copied to the OS2 directory under the RIPL tree and the
DLL's need to be copied to the OS2\DLL directory of the RIPL tree. In
addition the files XGARING0.SYS need to be copied from the service pak
server OS2 directory to the OS2 directory of the RIPL tree and DISPLAY.DLL
and DSPRES.DLL must be copied from the OS2\DLL directory of the service pak
server
DSPRES.DLL must be copied from the OS2\DLL directory of the service pak
server to the OS2\DLL directory of the RIPL tree.
Once these files are in place the CONFIG.20 for each RIPL workstation must
be modified to include the statement: BASEDEV=XGA.SYS
and the FIT files for each RIPL workstation need to be modified as follows:
Z:\OS2\DLL\DISPLAY.DLL OS2.20\OS2\DLL\DISPLAY.DLl
which will replace Z:\OS2\DLL\DISPLAY.DLL OS2.20\OS2\DLL\XGA.DLL
With these fixes the workstation will RIPL in XGA with the service pak.
Sorry it took so long to figure out what was wrong. When files are missing
the problem is not a code break but simply missing code.
The defect is being routed to the install folks for service pak to have
the proper files installed from the Display Driver Disks. Also the files
that replace the failing components are available in the 2.1 code.
I am also inclosing copies of the config.20 and *.fit files from my
successfully RIPLed workstation. In addition I have REMed out the
XGARING0.SYS file. This should not have to be REMed out but it does work
with this situation. The only reason that you would need this is for 1.3
applications that require the XGARING0.SYS.
XGARING0.SYS, DISPLAY.DLL, and DSPRES.DLL have been added to XGARIPL.ZIP by
Kenn Dimock so that all the files required are accessible from one place.
These files are the ones used in my testing and successful RIPLing of XGA.
