Check if you have the proper dependencies (klibc and gcc) installed: http://trac.netlabs.org/lucide/
Also check if there are other versions of these libs somewhere in you libpath or in program directories and remove them.

Lucide development has stopped, it's successor is qpdfview : ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/qtapps/qpdfview-0_4_10-GA.zip

Which version of uniaud are you using? 1.9.26 is the latest supported one. Do you have an SMP system? Do you have ACPI installed, if so, which version and with which parameters?

I have no problems with PSI/2, with or without sound. Could it be a problem with your sound driver? Older versions of uniaud do have various problems. Some other older drivers are not smp safe.

Whenever I read your alias here, I mentally add some letters and make it Fahrvergnugen. What's worse, it takes me hours to get rid of Kraftwerks "Autobahn" afterwards....

Do you guys have REIPL=ON in your config.sys? I haven't had a random reboot in ages and seldom get traps, the very occasional trap 3 in JFS and when I marked SeaMonkey and Thunderbird to use high memory Thunderbird became unstable, even causing a trap 0. I unmarked Thunderbird and the system became stable.

No, don't have the REIPL statement in config.sys, and default is off.

Hello,

both my AMD Phenom Quad Core computer and my Sony Vaio Intel i3 reboot like that.
Everything goes black instantly and then BIOS info show up as it reboot.
It happen with JAVA applications such as JDownloader as well.

Does it do a 'clean' reboot, like CAD does, i.e. the filesystem is clean on reboot like here?

Hi Guzzi, that almost sounds like a hardware problem. Possibly heat. Have you looked in your computer lately for dust bunnies? Ran a memory checker?

Yes, did all that, even replaced the memory just to be sure. There are only two events that will trigger such a reboot. Flash will always do it, and very very seldom a combination of firefox being up very long, several other programs running and openoffice opened and closed a few times might trigger a reboot. It might be  a hardware problem, but not 'faulty' hardware, I think rather something specific to my hardware that causes the kernel to panic when certain memory addresses are used. Some form of memory corruption perhaps. I should try if with Panorama instead of Snap the problem goes away but unfortunately I can't set the proper resolution with panorama (it will not 'see' all the resolutions the monitor supports as if it can't properly read the ddc information). I'm just guessing, of course. If I would log via com port I might get some useful debugging info for someone knowledgeable to look at, but since I am the only one who has reported this issue I am loath to have have scarce manpower spent on this issue.

The Flash isn't trouble free either... It causes my system to reboot like if I did a CAD. The latest version doesn't always do that, but reboot may still occur even after a flash video has played. And it's not something that can be debugged(

The source for 1.0 beta is available here: http://www.tcom.co.uk/secondnature/pmics/

Hi Guzzi.

The site is down, and there is not saved copy on archive.org. Is there any chance to get the source code of that version?

Regards

Sorry Martin, I pasted the wrong link. This is the right one: http://www6.chessclub.com/resources/icc/interface/MISC/

Doesn't run here either. Perhaps this can be built for OS/2? : http://sourceforge.net/projects/kwave/?source=typ_redirect

I have no idea if the actual filesystem data differs between the two eCS versions' JFS implementations, but I haven't heard of any interoperability problems either

I think the eCS versions are data compatible. It was just the very early OS/2 version that had the problem. I mentioned it because it was a possible cause.

I seem to recall there was one release which changed the filesystem structures slightly, and therefore necessitated a reformat.  I don't remember if it was a late IBM update or one of the BootJFS releases. In any case, reformatting with the latest eCS JFS.IFS and UJFS.DLL in place is probably advisable.

I have had what I think was a compatability problem with JFS similar to this one when I installed  an eCS 2.0 beta version on a box with 1.13 already on it.. It was solved by reformatting with and using the latest version only. The problem would occur everytime the 1.13 install was booted and had written to the disk until I synched the JFS files.

It might be that the different jsf versions on 1.2 and 2.1 cause problems. Like Eirik said, boot from cdrom, preferably the 2.1 and run chkdsk x: /f . If that fixes the corrupted partitions, proceed with copying the 2.1 ifs stuff over to your other bootable partitions.
The files are:
x:\os2\jfschk32.exe
x:\os2\jfsh.msg
x:\os2\dll\ujfs.dll
x:\os2\install\jfs.ifs
x:\os2\install\jfs.msg
This also makes sense because the later jfs version contains a number of fixes.

Yes, there is a shortage of developers, especially the 'special kind' ones. There is one who would do a great job, also in getting the FAT32 driver to perform better. It's sooooo slow. Maybe we should start funding a human cloning project instead of OS/2 software for better progress))
