Subj: OS/2 V1.3 SUPPORT Status: PUBLIC MESSAGE
We have added a new bulletin (BLT4) that has info about support for
OS/2 version 1.3 and the PS180-16FN controller. Also there is a file in
DIR1 that can be downloaded that explains how to perform a patch to
allow OS/2 version 1.3 to install correctly with the PS180-16FN
controller. This file is called OS2_13.ZIP. The patch has been tested by
an IBM Engineer and Perstor's Engineers. All of the tests have passed
and OS/2 version 1.3 is now compatible.
Thank you for your patience!
