Subj : [VOICENWS] SW: 20050811 kernels on testcase To : All From : madodel@ptdprolog.net Date : Thu Aug 11 2005 05:05 pm ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eComStation News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++ From: madodelDESPAM@DESPAMptdprolog.net Scott G. posted the following on comp.os.os2.bugs: These replace all previous kernels -- especially 0808, which introduced a "small" regression. :-( These kernels are usable on all CPUs > 386 (except 486sx which requires the W4 kernel), since I left in all CPU errata workarounds for the P-Pro CPUs. [Moderator note: As always these are not officially supported by IBM unless they tell you to use them. Download from **** Please send any followup to comp.os.os2.bugs on usenet. **** Also note that files are only on IBM's testcase for 2-3 days, so if you want to try these get them now. Make certain you back up any files replaced and don't try these on a production system. Read any readme file before applying any changes. If your system is working well, and you have no problems addressed by these updates, do yourself a favour and don't mess with this. You have been warned. The UNI and SMP files are for WSeB/ACP/eCS Pro (SMP kernel) and the W4 files are for post FP15/MCP versions, including eComStation. Only use the SMP kernel on a machine with more then one CPU.] From the readme file: 200507808 14.104a - fixed problem in 14.104 (only) that caused (at least) some VDM applications (such as COPY) to fail. -- Warpstock 2005 - Hershey, Pennsylvania, Oct. 6-9 http://www.warpstock.org Warpstock Europe 2005 - Dresden, Germany, Nov. 18-20 http://www.warpstock.net [Moderator's note: All posts are sent without guarantee to the accuracy of the content.
