PMView: The ultimate in image viewing Major update coming soon! Watch http://www.pmview.com/ for details ********************************************************************* Source: Alexey Smirnov (ELF@KROVATKA.RU) Moderator: Trevor Smith (trevor@haligonian.com) ------------------------------------------------------- Dear Friends! My work is going on. I will try to place my new version of SysInfo/2 (PM selfmade clone of wellknown NU 3.0 for Win 95/NT SysInfo ) on HOBBES soon. Version number will be 0.50. Right now you can download SysInfo v0.038 from: http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/util/system/sysinfo0038.zip This is a list of enchancements and differences from the current (0.038) version: 1)First page (Total info) is almost complete (Dos Support - corrected, FixPack&Build Level - added, Multimedia&CDROM - addded, HDDs info - added) 2)2nd page (Memory Info) - refresh is added 3)Problems with opening of read only *.INI files that prevent SysInfo/2 to start - corrected 4)Last page (Device tree) - almost done. Information is shown in Win95 style and now you can find all info about any device you selected + total resource usage summary (IRQ, DMA, Ports, etc.) - also like in Win 95 The SysInfo/2 project roadmap is: 1) CPU&FPU benchmarks will be added to 1st page (may be, based on SysBench source) 2) Disk&CDROM benchmarks will be added to 3rd page (may be based on diskbench source) 3) "Details" buttons will be added to all page (to display, save & print information summary in a text form) 4) PCI devices will be displayed from PCI helper information, not from DevManager, so you will see in Device Tree some PCI devices that are not known/not installed in your OS/2 system. 5) Command line parameters will be added to use SysInfo in *.cmd files 6) MMIO information page will be compleated. 7) All help will be written. And also... ;-(( From SysInfo/2 v. 0.50 a time limit will be added. And from v. 0.90 (I think, after doing step 5) from the roadmap shown above) SysInfo/2 will become a shareware program. I think, the price will be small and not become a problem. ;-)) Now, I ask you to try my current SysInfo/2 to find any bugs not listed in the corrected list shown above. I am interested in testing my SysInfo/2 on new CPUs (Pentium II >400Mh, Athlon, Pentium III) and on new VideoCards (all that are supported by SDD Beta 9). Please, take part in beta testing phase! Taking part in this phase will guarantee you a free ordering of SysInfo/2 in future. Also you are welcome to do national translation! ------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ -------------------------------------------------------
