Subject:  [VOICENWS] New drivers on DDPak

From: Barry Bryan, posted on comp.os.os2.beta


There are two new OS/2 device drivers now available on the OS/2 DDPak    
(http://service.software.ibm.com/os2ddpak/) that may be of interest to   
some of you.  They're currently beta, but will become "IBM Supported"    
when FVT completes.                                                      
                                                                          * 
Driver for the internal 56K modem on the ThinkPad T20 family.  It's   
   listed under MODEMS/IBM.  Yes, I know this is a WinModem, but it does 
   work under OS/2 with this driver.                                     
                                                                          * 
Driver for Parallel Port-attached ZIP drives, ZIP 100, ZIP Plus, and  
   ZIP 250.  It's listed under REMOVABLE DISKS/IOMEGA.

Moderator's note: The modem driver appears to be an updated version of the
Lucent winmodem driver.  The following is in the ltmodem self-extracting
archive's README.TXT:

    This driver provides modem support for ThinkPads with the

      o  56K V.90 Mini PCI modem card / Lucent chip set

      o  IBM 10/100 EtherJet Mini PCI Adapter with 56K Modem / Intel
         ethernet chipset / Lucent modem chip set

Also in the README.TXT file: 

    This version of the driver functions only as a 33.6KB modem; V.90 will
     be supported in a later release.
