Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2013 21:30:26 +0100 From: VOICE News Service Subject: [VOICENWS] General: Ciritical problems in drivers ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++ From: egDESPAM at DESPAMecomstation.ru Don't delay posting of bug-reports to the developers of device drivers. Here is the list of all bug-trackers: http://ecomstation.ru/projects/support/?action=bug-tracker Several significant barriers: 1) eComStation can access 512 Mb of RAM only (altough you have installed 2 Gb or 4 Gb). This problem occurs on modern computers (Intel Core i3/i5/i7, UEFI motherboards, B57 chipset, etc.) One of reports: http://bugs.ecomstation.nl/view.php?id=3312 Do you have this problem? Post information about your computer model. Is it possible influence on this problem via BIOS setup? 2) Do you have troubles with video? * For example, you can activate 1440x900x65536 video mode, but 1440x900xTrueColor shows trash on the screen. Solution: (no solution) * Modern NVidia video adapters: You can activate needed video mode (larger than 1680x1050) but the quality of picture is poor (16:9 monitors; you see flashing / the picture is smaller than the dimension of the screen) Solution: NVidia DVI Scale filter -- Panorama VESA homepage 3) AHCI driver (SATA driver): * Does it work for you? * Does SSD drive work with this driver? * Did you had a crash of system which couldn't be recovered? (JFS filesystem, "OS/2 is unable to boot"). Collect more information (version of driver) and post to the bug-tracker. This problem may relate to JFS driver or AHCI driver. Notes: This message is aimed to recall the links to the bug-trackers, gather users with similar problems, combine detailed bug-reports and attract the attention of the developers to critical problems. -- For a choice in the future of personal computing, Join VOICE - http://www.os2voice.org [Moderator's note: All posts are sent without guarantee to the accuracy of the content.
