Now Netscape is clobbered. It cannot do a DNS lookup, complaining about no DNS entry. If I type in an IP address, it works just fine. Running nslookup from an OS/2 Window works fine too, so I know the DNS setup is still good. I've tried re-installing Netscape 4.04, but no avail. Anybody got any suggestions?

How did you make this upgrade? What version did you have before? I upgraded mine yesterday from the last build (may 99 I think) and everything is working perfectly.

Norris" Do you think you've posted in enough newsgroups? Which one would like an answer in? The short answer is that installing Java can't cause this, so something else has happened. Try posting more details to just one newsgroup.

Righto - I have seen pictures of those keyboards and plan on purchasing one for my next one. Currently I use a mini type keyboard - without the numeric keypad of dedicated cursor keys - and DEFINITELY without those windows keys. ________________________________________________________ [RJ] OS/2 - Live it, or live with it. rj friedman Team ABW Taipei, Taiwan rjf@yyycomasia.com To send email - remove the `yyy' ________________________________________________________ --- WtrGate+ v0.93.p7 sn 165 * Origin: Usenet: SEEDNet News Service (1:109/42) +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ From: milindr@bellsouth.net 22-Sep-99 20:41:23 To: All 23-Sep-99 04:15:25 Subj: Re: New Keyboard ????

From: JHB@jita.demon.co.uk (Jim Backus) As other have said the keyboard should work as a basic keyboard. If you wanted to make use of the extra keys, you might be able to get at them through Rexx. I've just been looking at my copy of TYR in 21 days and there are functions that return the scan codes. You could get a Rexx script loaded in Startup to do something useful with them. But like the others I positively look for 101 or 102 key K/Bs preferably american layout as I've got used to it - they are _rare_ in the UK.

How do I get the IDE port to work under Warp 3.0? The sound works fine with the 1868 drivers but I can't get the IDE port to work. Under DOS it requires a device driver which enables the port.
