- I've noticed this a few times too. Are you using HPFS? I'm setup with the
- OS/2 files on HPFS and most of the DOS apps in a FAT partition. Anyone else
- seeing this happen with or without HPFS?
-
- I've also had my printer object disappear from the desk top. I changed the
- icon at one point and some time after that, the object vanished. I
- re-installed a printer ojbect and it seems to be working fine so I'm not sure
- what the story is. I searched the entire desktop and couldn't find the missing
- printer object anywhere.
-
- There was also a point at which shutdown wouldn't even start the shutdown
- process. Well, actually it would close all the open windows but then stop. It
- didn't even display the system shutting down message. Just dropped me back
- into the WPS and I could continue to work.
-
- I've only seen that occur once, and after a three finger salute, it seems to be
- OK. And there was one time a three finger salute wouldn't even force a reboot.
- I got the new message about the system being rebooted and some caches seemed to
- get flushed, but then the system hung. I was forced to reset the system and
- cold boot.
-
- The slow scrolling in OS/2 and DOS windows is also really annoying. I haven't
- done much playing with the DOS parameters yet that have been recommended
- elsewhere so I don't know if I can at least get the DOS box functioning better.
-
- I am quite happy with the 1024x768 driver for my PDII though! That part at
- least seems to be running well!
