Some of these systems are experiencing TRAP 0006 or hangs at boot-up after installing FixPak 35. The fix for this problem is included in this issue of the IBM Technical Connection, on Volume B2, under Software Fixes and Updates. Select OS/2 Warp 3, then select the "OS/2 Warp v3 FixPak 35 (XR_W035) - Additional Files" package. A problem with some faster Intel systems (166Mhz or faster) hanging when OS/2 Warp 3 is installed has been found. IBM has released a set of updated OS/2 Loader files (OS2LDR) to correct this problem. This fix is also in the "OS/2 Warp v3 FixPak 35 (XR_W035) - Additional Files" package described above. A problem has been found when using the Development Technologies Deskman/2 product with FP35 or FP6 installed. A SYS3175 error in DOSCALL1.DLL occurs when running the DM2IMAGE program.

FixPaks for Multiple Languages While most products provide separate fixpaks for each language they support, a few products include all supported languages in one fixpak package. If in the IBM Technical Connection you cannot find a particular fixpak you are looking for under your language, check the "multi language" category (on Volume B3), or check English U.S. (Volumes B1 - B3). Information about DB2 FixPaks Due to space limitations, we cannot currently provide all available DB2 fixpaks. If you are not able to obtain fixpaks from the DB2 FTP site (ftp://service.boulder.ibm.com/ps/products/db2/fixes), then please contact your local DB2 Support Group. They can provide information about available fixpaks and will be able to send you a DB2 fixpak CD through the mail. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
