SciTech SNAP 2.1.5 beta available
A new beta of SciTech's SNAP universal display driver is available.
(Announced in news://news.scitechsoft.com/scitech.snap.graphics.os2)
URL: http://www.scitechsoft.com/products/enterprise/snap_os2_content.html
Download: ftp://ftp.scitechsoft.com/snap/os2/beta/
Changelog: http://www.scitechsoft.com/snap2_changes.txt
Changes in 2.1.5 (build 393)
----------------------------
. Added full acceleration support for the Nvidia GeForce FX 5200,
GeForce4 MX 440 8X, GeForce4 Ti 4200 8X, GeForce4 Ti 4800, Quadro4 NVS,
and Quadro4 XGL. The GeForce4 MX 460, GeForce4 Ti 4400, and GeForce4
Ti 4600 are all separately detected and certified now. VGA output
should
now work correctly on both heads for graphics cards that have two
connectors (including those that only have the second head!); note that
this does NOT mean there is MultiHead support. Also, DDC monitor
detection is now working on most chipsets.
. Added full acceleration support for the ATI Radeon 9500 and Radeon 9500
Pro chipsets, which includes zooming support. Also fixed some text
mode
refresh rate problems on the Radeon 9700 Pro. There is also
uncertified
support for the Radeon 9100 and 9800 Pro; these may or may not work.
. DVI output is now officially supported on the i865G chipset.
. Zooming to 512x384 was not properly switching to software mouse cursor
when running on the LCD panel on the Mobility Radeon chipsets; fixed.
. When using MultiHead, StarOffice will display fonts stretched. Other
programs, such as the System Clock, look distorted as well. You can
now manually fix this by setting the SNAPHRES or SNAPVRES environment
variables in your Config.Sys. For details, see the FAQ:
http://www.scitechsoft.com/support/faq/fom.cgi?file=26
. Removed the window resizing code from the MultiHead centering option,
as it was causing problems with tabbed dialogs such as the System
object, and perhaps other windows as well.
. Removed the ThinkPad LCD panels from the monitor database, as they
should not have been there in the first place.
. The uninstall program now supports the "/u" switch for unattended
removal (no confirmation or dialog prompts).
. Integrated latest versions (E.096) of IBM GRADD components. This fixes
DOS sessions on the Rage128 Pro chipsets, and Win/OS2 problems on SMP
machines when using stack switching. Version D.096 fixed the Watcom
debugger problems caused by GRADD C.096. If you are using SMP and
getting SYS1924 crashes, you need to get the new PMMERGE.DLL for CMVC
Defect 272686, or revert back to the older VMAN.DLL (from SNAP 2.1.3).

LIST OF CHANGES since version 0.42
Version 1.0
Added a way to specify the character set.
Reduced the amount of white space caused by things like
empty subrecords in the GED file.
Replaced the crude documentation by an INF file.
Added the %i macro.
Allowed the header and footer to depend on which file
we are displaying.
Run_Java -- Simplify running java13x/java14x apps
Sorry for the delay... I moved from California to Michigan at about the
time that Innotek made the first beta java 141 available and have been a
bit lazy ever since...
These scripts are designed to make working with IBM's java13 and Innokek's
Java14 a bit easier. (I'll try to add Golden Code's release when it is
available)...
This is a generic script for starting java13 and java14 apps in OS/2-eCS.
(there are two separate scripts: java_13 first checks for java131, then
it looks for java13, java_14 first looks for the java14 runtime then it
looks for the java_14 SDK)
[quick version... unzip this archive into a directory e.g. unzip
run_java__20030225.zip -d run_java Run install_os2.cmd -- this will create
a "Create Java Object" program object on your desktop. Just drop a jar
file on the object to create a program object for the .jar file. It will
also create a "Run Jars" object -- this will allow you to start most
modern java apps by just double clicking on the jar file.]
Latest version allows for more flexible Parameters...
e.g. now you can pass options to java.exe
