OS/2 2.11 - README
_________________
Welcome to OS/2* 2.11. This README provides
helpful hints found during testing as well as
updated information that was not available at the
time the publications were printed. It is divided
into the following categories:
o General System Considerations
o WIN-OS/2 Application Compatibility
o DOS Application Compatibility
o OS/2 Application Compatibility
o DOS and WIN-OS/2 Multimedia Application
Compatibility
o Network
o Display Adapters
o Audio Adapters
o Printers
o Scanners
o Advanced Power Management Support for Portable Computers
o Mahjongg Game
o Trademarks
A separate README file for MMPM/2 is contained
in the MMPM/2 program.
GENERAL SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS
o Your system .INI files might be read-only. As a result,
the system will not update the .INI files. When this
happens, the position of the icons will not be saved.
To resolve this problem go to the directory where your system .INI
files are located C:\OS2 (default). Then, type the following:
ATTRIB -r *.ini
Shut down your system and when it starts, your system .INI
files are updated.
o OS/2 2.1 uses a system proportional font
that is designed to meet the International
Standards Organization (ISO) 9241 standard
and the German DIN 66234 standard on
suitable hardware.
ISO compliant fonts cause some text strings
to be clipped. If you do not want to use
ISO compliant fonts, modify the OS2.INI
file to install fonts that are not ISO
compliant. Font changes made in the
OS2.INI file are global across all
applications. If you have REXX installed,
you can type the following information into
a CMD file and use it to change the font.
/* */
call RxFuncAdd "SysIni", "RexxUtil", "SysIni"
AppName = "PM_SystemFonts"
KeyName = "DefaultFont"
FontName = "10.System Proportional Non-ISO"
call SysIni "USER", AppName, KeyName, FontName||"0"x
exit
After the file has been run, shut down and
restart the system.
o If you experience video corruption:
- Display the pop-up menu for the
desktop; then select Refresh to redraw
the desktop.
- If the screen goes blank, press Alt+Esc
to switch between the applications to
force repainting of the screen.
o DOS images on the hard disk (VMBs) need to
use the FSFILTER and FSACCESS drivers
provided with this version of OS/2.
FSFILTER and FSACCESS drivers are located in
the \OS2\MDOS directory.
o The Check disk option for a CD-ROM object
will not display information about the
CD-ROM. To obtain information about the
CD-ROM:
1. Point to the CD-ROM drive object.
2. Click mouse button 2.
3. Select the arrow to the right of Open.
4. Select Details view.
o During a system shutdown, there might be
times when the "Shutdown is completed"
message is not displayed. If this happens,
wait 30 seconds until all disk activity is completed, and
then restart the system.
o If you are installing OS/2 2.11 over a
system that has OS/2 2.0 installed, the
desktop directory name will be "OS!2_2.0_D"
and the title of the desktop will be "OS/2
2.0 Desktop". On a system that has OS/2
2.11 installed, the desktop directory name
will be "Desktop".
o If you have a preinstalled system, and you
change your country or keyboard configuration
using the Configure Preinstalled System program,
located in the Configuration Tools folder, the
changes occur only for OS/2 sessions.
To configure the country and keyboard for WIN-OS/2*
sessions, use the International icon from the
WIN-OS/2 Control Panel.
o After installing OS/2 2.11 on your system, use the
Migrate Applications program instead of the Selective Install
program to migrate your programs. The
Migrate Applications program is located in the System
Setup folder.
o If you are running CHKDSK from the command line
without the /F parameter on an HPFS partition which also
contains your SWAPPER.DAT file, you may receive a SYS0552
error message. This message can be ignored. If you are using
CHKDSK from the popup menu of a drive icon, you may receive a
WARNING message stating "The disk is in use or locked by
another process." If this occurs, CHKDSK will not let you
display the graphical representation of disk usage.
o Added support for Boot Manager exists on a disk other than
Disk 1. The ability to delete and re-install the Boot
Manager requires that you exit FDISK after you delete the
Boot Manager and re-start FDISK to install Boot Manager again.
This is true even if you are going to place it in the same
partition. This means you would have to re-enter the partition
names.
o The kernel debug diskettes shipped with the Developer's Toolkit for
OS/2 version 2.1 will not work with OS/2 version 2.11. (The kernel
debug files for OS/2 version 2.11 are located on the OS/2 version
2.11 CD-ROM. Please reference the Kernel Debugger Installation
README file in the OS2TK21\DEBUG sub-directory on the CD for more
information.)
If you do not have access to this CD-ROM, you can retrieve the
kernel debug files for OS/2 version 2.11 electronically through the
IBM Personal Computer Company Bulletin Board System (PCC BBS)
sponsored by the IBM Personal Systems Help Center in Raleigh, North
Carolina. The PCC BBS is available 24 hours a day on a toll-call
basis with no access charge to the bulletin board. To access the
PCC BBS call 1-919-517-0001.
Requirements for the asynchronous electronic connection to the PCC
BBS are:
* A modem that support 1200 to 14400 baud
* Communication software that supports 8 bit file transfers
* A switched telephone line.
The modem should be set to:
- eight data bits
- one stop bit
- no parity
- standard transmission speed from 1200 to 14400 baud.
Refer to the bulletin titled "OS/2 2.11 Kernel Debug Files" in
file area 11 (OS/2 Programming) on the PCC BBS for downloading
instructions once you are connected.
The kernel debug files will also be available on the Developer
Connection for OS/2 Volume 3 CD-ROM.
WIN-OS/2 APPLICATION COMPATIBILITY
o The original WIN-OS/2 color scheme was added
to the list of available color schemes in
the WIN-OS/2 color panel. If you change color
schemes and would like to return to the original
color scheme, select WIN-OS/2 Original.
o The performance of Windows** programs that
use floating point operations can be
improved by changing the WIN-OS/2 setting
WIN_RUN_MODE to Enhanced Compatibility.
o Windows scanning programs should be run in
a WIN-OS/2 full-screen session to avoid
video corruption.
o To ensure the integrity of 16-color bit
maps on SVGA, XGA*, and 8514 systems, run
Microsoft** Paint Brush in a WIN-OS/2
full-screen session.
o Some messages encountered in a WIN-OS/2
window session request that you select
either Ignore or Close; when, the only
options are Ignore and OK. Select OK
instead of Close.
o If you are using a WIN-OS/2 window session,
an OS/2 Presentation Manager** session, and a
DOS full-screen session, Alt+Esc might not
sequence through all of the windows
correctly. Alt+Esc might switch to the
WIN-OS/2 session every other time, or the
DOS full-screen session might never be
displayed.
To avoid this problem, press Ctrl+Esc or
press mouse buttons 1 and 2 at the same
time to display the Window List. Then select
the desired session.
o If you are in a full-screen WIN-OS/2
session and transparent desktop icons appear over open
windows, minimize or maximize the window to
force repainting.
o During installation of the Windows 3.1 SDK,
a message is displayed stating that the
installation program cannot find
KRNL286.EXE or KRNL386.EXE. Ignore the
message and continue installation. The SDK
will function normally.
o If you are using the Winsleuth Gold
hardware diagnostics program:
- Do not run Chip test (a RAM test
program). Chip test attempts to lock
hardware interrupts. OS/2 2.1 does not
allow programs to lock hardware
interrupts.
- When the video mode hardware test
switches from character to graphics
mode, a "suspended" message might
appear. If the message appears, select
Full-screen from the Sessions System
menu. Testing will resume.

Lotus Improv 2.0 for Windows
----------------------------
Must be installed with WIN-OS/2 running in
enhanced mode.
Mathematica** 2.2
-----------------
Must run seamlessly in a WIN-OS/2 window.
Microsoft Windows Printing System
---------------------------------
The OS/2 spooler must be disabled. If you are
using a parallel printer, direct the output of
the printer to LPT1 instead of LPT1.OS2.
Norton Desktop** 2.0
------------------
Run in a WIN-OS/2 full-screen standard-mode session.
Paint Brush
-------------
To ensure the integrity of 16-color bit maps on
SVGA, XGA, and 8514 systems, run Paint Brush in
a WIN-OS/2 full-screen session.
If you are using the Paint Brush program in a
WIN-OS/2 window session, the mouse pointer/hourglass
will not disappear when the Zoom In option is
selected from the View menu. In a full-screen
WIN-OS/2 session, the mouse pointer/hourglass
will disappear and only the Zoom In box will
remain on the screen.
If you are using Paint Brush to paint single
pixels in zoom-in mode, the pixel being painted will look
unpainted where the mouse pointer covers it.
Zoom out and in again to see the entire pixel painted correctly.
Powerpoint** 3.0
----------------
If you are displaying the DROPBXV.PPT and
GRIDWRVK.PPT demo slides in 640x480x256 resolution,
you might see small horizontal line corruption.
If you are using a WIN-OS/2 window, you might
get incorrect background color when viewing a
thumbnail of a template. This will not affect
the running of the application.
Video for Windows
-----------------
Run in a full-screen session.
If you configure video animation to run full-screen
in Video playback, deselect Skip video frames if
behind, to eliminate any corruption of the video
during play.
WindowWorks**
-------------
Install in a WIN-OS/2 full-screen session.
DOS APPLICATION COMPATIBILITY
o Use OS/2 system utilities. DOS system
utilities might not recognize the extended
attributes associated with a file.
o OS/2 provides integral disk caching and
memory optimization functions. Use of the
equivalent functions that are provided with
MS-DOS** 6.0 is not necessary and might produce
errors.
o It is not necessary to run SHARE.EXE in a DOS session.
OS/2's DOS emulation provides SHARE.EXE compatible to that which
comes with DOS versions 5.x and 6.x.
APPLICATION NOTES:
DOS Games
---------
For performance reasons, play in a DOS
full-screen session. Change the DOS setting
VIDEO_8514A_XGA_IOTRAP to OFF.
Fotoman**
---------
If you have problems running Fotoman, set the
DOS COM_DIRECT_ACCESS setting ON.
Freelance Graphics**
--------------------
If you are using Freelance in a WIN-OS/2
window, you might get incorrect background
color when viewing a thumbnail of a template.
This will not affect the running of the
application.
Harvard Graphics** 3.0
--------------------
If you have problems running Harvard Graphics 3.0
change the DOS setting VIDEO_8514A_XGA_IOTRAP to OFF.
Maxis Sim City 2000 for DOS
---------------------------
Under the Program tab for the program object, set the
Optional Parameters to NO_MEM_CHK. Under the Session Tab,
select the DOS_SETTINGS button and set DPMI_MEMORY_LIMIT to 8.
Microsoft MSCDEX
----------------
Microsoft MSCDEX.EXE will only run in an OS/2 virtual
machine boot (VMB) session. If you are using an OS/2
supported CD-ROM drive (your CD-ROM drive has an OS/2
specific driver) you should be able to run your CD-ROM
based DOS program in a virtual DOS machine (VDM) session
without MSCDEX.EXE running, since VCDROM.SYS emulates
MSCDEX function in a VDM. To run DOS multimedia applications,
change the DOS_SETTING, INT_DURING_IO to ON, for the program object.
Intel** SatisFAXtion**
----------------------
Must be run in a specific DOS session, unless
you do the following before you install the program:
1. Make a copy of your AUTOEXEC.BAT file and
name it AUTOEXEC.FAX.
2. Install the program.
3. Rename the AUTOEXEC.BAT file FAX.BAT.
4. Rename the AUTOEXEC.FAX file AUTOEXEC.BAT.
5. Make a program object for the SatisFAXtion
program.
6. Change the value of the DOS_AUTOEXEC
setting for the object to FAX.BAT.
7. Save and exit the Settings notebook.
Microsoft C/C++ 7.0 Linker
--------------------------
If you are using Microsoft C/C++ 7.0, configure
the program object's DOS_SETTINGs with DPMI_DOS_API=ENABLED.
Also, modify the AUTOEXEC.BAT being used for the session
so that the Microsoft \C700\BIN directory is searched first.
For example:
PATH X:\C700\BIN;C:\OS2;C:\OS2\MDOS;C:\OS2\MDOS\WINOS2;C:\;
Paradox V4.0
-------------
If you have problems running Paradox V4.0
change the DOS setting DPMI_DOS_API = ENABLE.
Wayne Gretsky's Hockey Game
---------------------------
Not supported.
Wing Commander** II
-------------------
Set HW_TIMER to OFF.
WordPerfect V6.0
-----------------
If you have problems running WordPerfect V6.0
change the DOS setting DOS_FILES = >99.
Terminator Game
---------------
Must use a joystick.
OS/2 APPLICATION COMPATIBILITY
o Closing OS/2 applications that use the
hardware palette (typically picture viewers
or sample graphic applications)
occasionally causes a repaint problem on
the desktop. If the windows do not repaint
correctly, a refresh will restore the
desktop, but any windows that are opened or
moved will still have the problem.
Restarting the system is the only way to
completely correct this problem.
o If you are using Lotus 123G for OS/2 or Lotus
Freelance Graphics for OS/2, you need to run
the following utility prior to using these
products with OS/2 2.1.
1. Change to the Lotus
directory that contains the application.
For example, type:
CD \123G
2. Back up the LD2CORE.DLL file. For
example, type:
COPY LD2CORE.DLL LD2CORE.BAK
3. Run the update program. Type:
LD2FIX
The Lotus program is now updated. You need to
shut down and restart your system for these changes
to take effect.
APPLICATION NOTES:
Communications Manager/2
------------------------
When used with Host Graphics support (HGINST)
you might experience shutdown problems.
Ensure that the following GDDM fixes have been
applied to the host system:
UN36882 - MVS
UN38883 - VM/SP
UN38884 - VM/XA SP
UN38885 - DOS/VSE
CorelDRAW 2.5
-------------
At the end of CorelDRAW 2.5 installation, you
might experience problems if you select one
of the View README options. The View README
options are "Yes" and "No".
If you select Yes, CorelDRAW will not run.
Icons will be generated. You must restart your
system and recreate each icon, using the Migrate
Applications program.
If you select No, CorelDRAW will not run. A
folder will appear without icons. You must
restart your system and create each icon, using
the Migrate Applications program.
For information on the Migrate Applications
program, refer to the OS/2 2.1 Using the
Operating System book.
NetView DM/2 (NVDM/2)
---------------------
o If you are using the CID method of
installation, you will need an updated version
of the LAPSCID.DLL file. This file is
available as LAPDLL.ZIP on the CompuServe
OS2SUPPORT forum, Lib #17 and the OS2BBS
on TALKLINK.
o Response install running under NetView to a SVGA or
dual display system, with the primary as 8514, must
have 10MB or more on the target system. Actual requirements
depend on the applications running while using the response install.
IBM LAN Server 2.0 and 3.0 Remote Installation
Program Load (RIPL)
----------------------------------------------
An updated version is needed to run with OS/2 2.1.
The diskette image is available as 2IRIPL.ZIP
on the CompuServe OS2SUPPORT forum, Lib #17 and
the OS2BBS on TALKLINK.
IBM LAN Server DLR 2.0, 3.0
---------------------------
When running WIN-OS2 in a VMboot environment, with DOS
and IBM LAN Server DOS LAN Requester 2.0 or 3.0, the
logoff option causes the WIN-OS2 session to freeze.
This problem occurs when network logon is performed
prior to entering WIN-OS2. To resolve the problem,
do the following:
- Do not use the network logoff in WIN-OS2 when running
LAN Server DOS LAN Requester 2.0 or 3.0.
RUMBA/400 for OS/2
------------------
If you use RUMBA/400 for OS/2, you might have a more recent
version of the MIRRORS.DLL file, located in the \OS2\DLL directory.
The file currently shipped with OS/2 2.11 is from Micrografix
ToolKit Ver. 3.01, ship level A51 dated 11/16/93. Before you
begin installing this version of the operating system, you must
backup your current MIRRORS.DLL file. After you install this
version of the operating system, you can replace the OS/2 2.11
level of MIRRORS.DLL with the backed up copy you previously created.
DOS AND WIN-OS/2 MULTIMEDIA APPLICATION COMPATIBILITY
o The following WIN-OS/2 and DOS Settings
should be used for Multimedia applications:
DOS/WIN INT_DURING_IO ON
DOS/WIN HW_TIMER ON
WIN VIDEO_SWITCH_NOTIFICATION ON
WIN VIDEO_8514A_XGA_IOTRAP OFF
DOS/WIN VIDEO_RETRACE_EMULATION OFF
DOS DPMI_MEMORY_LIMIT 8
APPLICATIONS NOTES:
Action!** 2.0
-------------
Run in a WIN-OS/2 full-screen session. Change the
following line in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
SET TEMP=C:\
Animation Works** 1.0
---------------------
Run in 1024x768 resolution.
IconAuthor** 4.0
----------------
If you are running the demo for this program,
you must exit and reenter the WIN-OS/2 session
before running the actual application.
LinkWay* Live 1.0 (Tool Series)
--------------------------------
Use the following DOS setting to make the demo
run properly:
DOS_RMSIZE=576
MIDI
----
Make sure that the MIDI mapper (in the Control
Panel) and channels are properly set to
the sound adapter.
Nautilus** 1.6 and 1.76
-----------------------
Run in a WIN-OS/2 full-screen session.
NETWORK
o Some systems could experience problems using Win-OS/2 with
version 2.0 of the Novell Netware Requester on this version
of the operating system. To correct the problems, it is necessary
to upgrade to Novell Netware Requester for OS/2 Version 2.11.
o The Workplace Shell login is not compatible
with NetWare** 4.0 Directory Services and
should be disabled unless you are using the
NetWare 4.0 Bindery Compatibility mode. To
disable the login:
1. Edit the CONFIG.SYS file.
2. Remove the CONNECTIONS option from SET
AUTOSTART.
3. Save and exit the CONFIG.SYS file.
4. Restart the system to activate the
changes.
o If you are using the NetWare Requester
version 2.01 (which ships with NetWare 4.0) but
have no NetWare 4.0 servers, you can
increase the speed of the login process by
turning the Directory Services off. To
turn the services off:
1. Edit NET.CFG file in the root directory
of the boot drive.
2. Add "Directory Services Off" to the file.
3. Save and exit the file.
o Novell** NetWare Requester 2.0 and 2.01
programs NMPIPE.SYS, NPSERVER.SYS, and
NPDAEMON.EXE require that
information be added to the OS2VER file.
To add this information to the file:
1. At an OS/2 command prompt, type: ATTRIB
-h -r -s OS2VER
2. Edit the OS2VER file in the root
directory of the boot drive.
3. Type the following information in the
file:
20=NMPIPE.SYS
20=NPSERVER.SYS
20=NPDAEMON.EXE
4. Save and exit the file.
5. Type ATTRIB +h +r +s OS2VER
o If you are using FFST/2 (for example, if
you enable the FFST/2 feature when
installing Communications Manager/2 or Data
Base Manager/2), REM out the
"RUN=...\EPW.EXE" statement in your
CONFIG.SYS file. To utilize FFST/2
technology, add a "DETACH EPW.EXE" as the
first statement in your STARTUP.CMD file.
o NetWare Client for OS/2 uses a default frame type of 802.2
on Ethernet networks. This is a change from the previous
default frame type of 802.3. Some routers do not support
Ethernet 802.2 frame types. If you are having difficulty
connecting to your server, add 802.2 Ethernet frame support
at the server, and ensure your router has the latest revision
of software.
o When using NetWare Client version 2.10 for OS/2, it is
important to load NETX.EXE into both global and private DOS
sessions. The NetWare Client installation program can modify
AUTOEXEC.BAT and any other DOS_AUTOEXEC files you specify.
You must also change the DOS_LASTDRIVE setting for each DOS
session to the last local drive on your system.
o The Virtual Loadable Module (VLM) version of the NetWare
DOS Client kit can be run in a DOS 5 or 6 VMB session under
OS/2 in either global or private mode. Use DOSVIPX to allow
sharing of the network adapter. This allows limited access
to NetWare 4.0x Directory Services in a DOS VMB session.
o The Novell file system fails to recognize LPT4 through LPT9
print devices and creates a disk full file instead. Copy or
pipe to \DEV\LPTx might function as a workaround or drag and drop
using the Workplace Shell.
o Pressing Ctrl-C in a NetWare utililty, running in a DOS session,
might cause a SYS3175 error and the session to fail. The
application will abort properly. If you still require a session
start a new one.
o Using a wildcard with the ATTRIB command can produce erratic
results. Use NDIR or FLAG instead.
o WIN-OS/2 File Manager and some other programs might show inaccurate
drive information when running in a private NetWare session.
Drives that are mapped in global or OS/2 sessions might appear
as local drives. You can remap these drives to other volumes
or directories without affecting the global session mappings.
DISPLAY ADAPTERS (IMAGE, SVGA, XGA, 8514)
o The OS/2 operating system will experience
video problems similar to those observed in
a DOS environment. These problems are due
to the failure of a BIOS video mode set.
An example of this problem is the video
image on an ALR** Modular PS with a
FlexView** 2x SVGA display failing to occupy
the entire screen in 1024 x 768 mode.
o If you are using an LCD display and have
difficulty locating the mouse pointer on
the screen, you can increase the size of
the pointer if you are using 640x480
resolution. To change the size of the
pointer (if you have REXX installed):
1. Use an editor to create a file called
LARGE.CMD.
2. Add the following information to the
file.
/* LARGE.CMD Set VGA pointers to large */
/* (c) Copyright IBM Corp. 1992, All rights reserved */
call RxFuncAdd "SysIni", "RexxUtil", "SysIni"
call SysIni "USER", "PM_IBMVGA", "CURSOR_SIZE", "1",
say Result
exit
3. Save and exit the file.
4. At an OS/2 command prompt, type "LARGE"
and press Enter.
This program will increase the size of the
cursor. To force a standard size pointer,
replace the "1" in the program with a "2".
To let the system select the size of the
pointer, replace the "1" in the program
with a "0".
o Users of the NCR** Safari notebook, SSL/25,
should modify the following information in
the CONFIG.SYS file on their startup drive
to allow video register shadowing to be
processed correctly in OS/2 2.1.
Change:
DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VVGA.SYS
to
DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VSVGA.SYS
o Systems with Image Adapters running in
dual-display modes will lose DOS window
support after a DOS full-screen or OS/2
full-screen session has been invoked. The
system must be restarted to reinstate the
DOS window environment. The problem can be
avoided by turning off the dual display
mode under the Image Adapter setup.
S3 FUNCTIONAL RESTRICTIONS
---------------------------
o After Dark** for Windows** images that move from left to right do
not perform properly at 640x480x16M resolution.
o To avoid a General Protection fault while loading Ventura
Publisher** for Windows be sure it is in one of the 256 color
resolutions.
o To avoid a trap in Lotus** 1-2-3** for OS/2 do not attempt to run
the program at 16.7 million colors.
o WordPerfect** 5.1 and 5.2 for Windows produce a general protection
fault when the "Print Preview" option is selected while using
800x600x64K or 600x480x16 million color mode.
o Users of the software motion video feature of MMPM/2 should
expect satisfactory results in 256-color modes. However, in
64K-color modes, users of the feature will experience unusual
MMPMCS results. The software motion video feature is not
supported in 16 million color modes.
In addition, the software motion video feature will take
advantage of a 1MB aperture on video adapters and systems where it
is available to improve the performance of video playback in
64K-color modes. For those systems with nonstandard locations,
the actual physical address of the aperture must be provided in
the following CONFIG.SYS statement:
SET VIDEO_APERTURE=xxxh
where "xxx" is a hexadecimal value in units of 1MB, representing
the actual physical address to map to the aperture. For example,
the IBM PS/ValuePoint Systems must have the statement:
SET VIDEO_APERTURE=400h
to use a physical address at 1GB.
o If you are using the 256 color mode, and your desktop
appears to be darker than other color modes, you must edit the
SVGADATA.PMI file located in the \OS2 directory.
Change the following statement from:
HI-COLOR DAC by ....
to:
HI-COLOR DAC by unknown
To make the changes effective you must reboot your system.
NEW SETVGA PROCEDURE
--------------------
Use the following procedure instead of the SETVGA command to return to
VGA mode.
NOTE: If your display is out of sync, start OS/2 using the OS/2
Installation Diskette, insert Diskette 1 when prompted, then
press Esc to access a command prompt. Follow the instructions
below to reset your display mode.
o If you installed OS/2 from diskettes:
1. Be sure RSPDSPI.EXE is in the \OS2\INSTALL directory. If it is, go
to step 2. If it is not, insert Installation Diskette 8 and unpack
RSPDSPI.EXE with the following command:
C:\OS2\UNPACK A:\INSTAID C: /N:RSPDSPI.EXE
where: A: is the drive containing Installation Diskette 8
C: is the drive where OS/2 is installed

SVGA CONSIDERATIONS
o The Western Digital** 90C31 SVGA chip set
will have video problems when Windows 2.x
applications are run.
o If you are using a ZEOS** system with
Speedstar** VGA, you must run the VMODE
utility supplied with the system to
configure the display during the display
driver installation.
o Zenith Data Systems** with the Headland Technology
chip set HT208 do not support high resolution modes
even though you can successfully set these modes
and install high resolution drivers. If a
high resolution mode is used, a white
half-screen will be displayed. To correct
this problem, use DSPINSTL to install VGA.
o If you have a Sigma Legend** display
adapter you might experience minor video
corruption on the desktop when you switch
between the desktop and DOS if they are
running in different modes. This can be
corrected by using a DOS utility to set the
DOS session to the same mode as the
desktop.
XGA CONSIDERATIONS
o If an XGA-2 adapter is installed, and you
have modified the default display type in
the System Settings notebook (page 2),
after you restart the system it will
display the Workplace Shell* in one
resolution and WIN-OS/2 in a different
resolution. To change the resolution for
the Workplace Shell:
1. Open OS/2 System.
2. Open System Setup.
3. Open System.
4. Select a 640x480xn resolution.
5. Shut down and restart the system.
6. Repeat steps 1 through 3.
7. Select the desired resolution.
8. Shut down and restart the system.
The Workplace Shell and WIN-OS/2 will now
be displayed in the same resolution.
o If you are using a dual-display system with
XGA as the primary display and VGA as the
secondary display, you might see some minor
corruption when the XGA display is set to a
resolution with 65536 colors. This
corruption will be on the display that does
not have focus and will not interfere with
the operation of the system.
o On dual-display configurations with XGA-2
as the primary display and VGA as the
secondary display, the DOS full-screen
session might be corrupted if a Windows
application is started in a window session.
To recover from this situation, shutdown
and restart the system.
o If you are using Dual Boot with an XGA-2
adapter, you must modify the CONFIG.DOS
file:
1. Edit the \OS2\SYSTEM\CONFIG.DOS file.
2. Locate the line
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE RAM 2048
X=nnnn-nnnn
3. Change nnnn-nnnn to C000-CFFF.
4. Save and exit the file.
o On IBM P75 systems, there might be some
corruption on the screen whenever several
icons are selected and moved together.
This corruption can be eliminated by
clicking mouse button 2 to bring up the
pop-up menu and then selecting Sort.
o An IBM P75 system with an external monitor
attached might have only the 640x480x16
resolution selection on the the System
Settings Screen page. If the external
monitor is capable of displaying higher
resolutions, use the P75 reference diskette
to disable the built-in plasma display.
o If you are using an XGA system, the hash
lines around the icons of open applications
might change color unexpectedly. This does
not interfere with the operation of the
system.
o If you are using an XGA system, extra lines
might appear on the face of the OS/2 System
Clock between the quarter (:15) and half
(:30) hour. These lines do not interfere
with the operation of the clock.
8514 CONSIDERATIONS
o If you are using the 1MB version of an
ATI** Graphics Ultra** Pro adapter, the VGA
memory must be set to SHARED to work
properly with the OS/2 8514 display driver.
This might cause some DOS applications
running in the background to corrupt the
desktop. To correct this problem, you must
upgrade to the 2MB version of the Graphics
Ultra Pro and set the VGA memory to 256K or
greater.
NOTE: In the "OS/2 Installation Guide", it
states that the ATI Graphics Ultra Pro must
be configured to IBM DEFAULT for the
640x480 display type. This setting might
be referred to as 60Hz rather than IBM
DEFAULT.
o If you are using a system with an 8514
adapter with Windows applications running
in separate WIN-OS/2 window sessions,
video corruption might occur in
bit maps when clipping between applications.
o After you start a WIN-OS/2 window session,
256-color bit maps might become discolored
due to the sharing of the 256-color
palette. This should not affect the
running of the applications.
o Selecting windows in Mathematica might not
bring focus to the proper window.
AUDIO ADAPTERS
o Audio support in WIN-OS/2 and DOS sessions is
dependent on installed drivers. You should
install the audio adapter driver that came with
your audio adapter. When installing audio
support for WIN-OS/2, be sure to install both
DOS and Windows device drivers. Configure
both drivers to use the same interrupt level and
DMA channel.
o The following drivers are available with
the Audio Capture and Playback Adapter
(ACPA):
- ACPADD.SYS
- ACPADD2.SYS
- ACPAK12.SYS
- ACPA.DRV
The latest updates are available on the IBM
Bulletin Board Service.
o MMPM/2 installs ACPA support for OS/2 only,
not WIN-OS/2 or DOS.
There are two ways to get DOS ACPA support
in DOS sessions:
1. Edit the CONFIG.SYS file.
2. Add DEVICE=C:\ACPAK12.SYS
3. Save and exit the CONFIG.SYS file.
4. Copy the ACPAK12.SYS file to the C:\
directory.
5. Restart the system to activate the
changes.

1. Install the DOS device driver following
the instructions that came with the
adapter. Use a DOS session for
the installation.
2. Install the Windows driver.
NOTE: Be sure to use the same I/O
address, interrupt, and DMA settings
used during install of the DOS drivers.
PRINTERS
o If you are using the HP** LaserJet**
printer driver, some complex images might
not print correctly when LaserJet
performance options are enabled. If you
experience incorrect output or degraded
printer performance, return the performance
options to the disabled state. To change

printer object.
o The OS/2 printer drivers on the OS/2 2.11
printer driver diskettes are stored in a
packed format that is not compatible with
OS/2 1.3 or 2.0. To install one of the
OS/2 2.11 printer drivers on a system with
OS/2 1.3 or 2.0 installed, you must first
unpack the driver on a system that has OS/2
2.11 installed. You do not have to complete
these steps to install a printer driver on
a system that already has OS/2 2.11
installed.
NOTE: Do not install the new 32-bit
PostScript driver (PSCRIPT.DR_) that came
with OS/2 2.11 on a system with OS/2 1.3 or
2.0 installed. It is not compatible with
these versions of OS/2. While testing is
continuing, current compatibility
information about tested systems is
available through your dealer, Marketing
Representative, CompuServe, IBM National
Support Center Bulletin Board System (NSC
BBS), and IBMLink*.
To unpack a printer driver for use on a
OS/2 1.3 or OS/2 2.0 system, complete the
following steps on your system that has
OS/2 2.11 installed.
1. Open an OS/2 command prompt.
2. Type:
MD X:\DRIVER
where X is a drive on your system.
3. Insert into drive A the OS/2 2.11
printer driver diskette that contains
the printer driver you want to install.
The printer driver names end in a "_".
Printer Driver: Diskette # Packed Name:

IBM 52XX 1 IBM52XX.DR_
Epson 1 EPSON.DR_
Plotter Driver 1 PLOTTERS.DR_
IBM 4019 2 IBM4019.DR_
IBM 4076 2 IBMPCL3.DR_
IBM 42XX 2 IBM42XX.DR_
IBM 5201-2 2 IBM52012.DR_
PaintJet** 2 SMGXPJET.DR_
IBM 4039 3 IBMPCL5.DR_
NOTE: In order to get the proper printer driver directory
structure on systems with OS/2 1.3, IBMPCL3, IBMPCL5,
HPDeskJet and PaintJet must be installed using the
Printer Install option in the Print Manager. Do not
use the Control Panel to install these printer drivers.
4. Type:
UNPACK A:\Packed name X:\DRIVER
where X is a drive on your system. For
example, if you want to install the
Epson printer driver, type :
UNPACK A:\EPSON.DR_ X:\DRIVER
The printer driver files are now
unpacked in the X:\DRIVER directory.
5. Copy the driver files to a diskette and
install them on your OS/2 1.3 or 2.0
system.

***************************************************************************
ADVANCED POWER MANAGEMENT SUPPORT FOR PORTABLE COMPUTERS
------------------------------------------------------
o This version of OS/2 includes additional APM support that was not
available for the original OS/2 2.1 release. Portables
with 32 bit protect mode APM are now supported.
Portable computers with the following are compatible with
OS/2 2.11 Advanced Power Management:
o 16-bit protect-mode APM in the BIOS
o 32-bit protect-mode APM
Portable computers that have no APM support in BIOS or
have only real-mode APM are not supported by OS/2
2.11 Advanced Power Management.
The DOS utility program APMHERE, which is available
on the IBM BBS, can quickly determine whether your
machine has Advanced Power Management support in con-
formance to the APM 1.0 Specification (dated 1/91).
Systems with BIOS dates prior to January 1991 will
not have the protect-mode APM support in their BIOS.
PORTABLE COMPUTERS WITH APM SUPPORT
--------------------------------------
The table that follows lists the portable computers that
have Advanced Power Management support. (This list
represents only systems tested as of January 27, 1994.)
