- In a previous article, chk@mcshh.Hanse.DE (Christian Kuhtz) says:

- Yes UUPC has been ported, and also compress, snews (a news reader) and
- unbatch.
-
- I installed all of these and set up a mail/news feed, and everything seemed
- to work fine, but...
-
- When I tried going to a full feed (1500 news groups in my case), OS/2 2.0
- couldn't handle the work load.
-
- Strangest thing. The news feed, at 2400 baud, took about 4 hours, and nine
- times out of ten my PS/2 Mod 70 w/ 16Mg ram would get a Trap D in the
- OEMHLP$ Device Driver.
-
- This in turn totally screwed up the news feed, and unbatching the articles
- became a nightmare.
-
- Has anyone else seen this trap D in OEMHLP$?
