OS/2 Warp and the Sony Vaio Pro 13
« on: October 21, 2014, 08:52:40 am »
Hi,

just some information here, so I do not need to write it a second time (already using Online Translator):

https://translate.google.de/translate?hl=de&sl=de&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.os2.org%2Fviewtopic.php%3Ff%3D2%26t%3D436

As I do not know if one can see the pictures I attach them here as well:

Have fun!

Here some Benchmarks I just made with sysbench 095c, Panorama Vesa FullHD, attached. Mostly all four kernels had been at 99,9% during testing, the system got a bit warm and the fan worked, but I was not worried about burning it up ;-)

488.109 CPU floating point-marks
4728.740 DIVE-marks

 Avg. data access time : --.--- milliseconds

OS/2 Warp and the Sony Vaio Pro 13 - The Problems
« Reply #3 on: October 22, 2014, 09:19:37 pm »
I made some more tests, here are the Problems occured so far:

Sound:

Latest UNIAUD loads, but I get no Sound. Usually I try to get info with "unimix -list", but this leads here to the result
"Invalid number of PCM instances on Adapter 0"

I googled this and someone solved it last year with using the latest UNIAUD. But I already have the latest UNIAUD....

Please see attached Picture "Eingefangen004"


QSINIT Loader

I do not know why - the latest QSINIT Loader 299 results in a blinking Cursor once I selected to boot it just stopps without any message - so I can not see what goes wrong. The OS/4 Loader does work so far without Errors.


Touchpad

I can not get the Touchpad to work, I do not know why and where to lock. I guess this is the "unknown Mouse Adpater" shown in the Hardwaremanager. I tried IBM, SMS and Amouse 2.80.
Fortunately the USB Mouse is working

What I still can not believe is that both USB 3.0 connectors are working as USBEHCI 2.0 ones. Well - no reason to complain I guess...  ;)

More to come...   8)

Wim Brul filled the Touch task with another Masterpiece of Software!

The Touch Driver is at 100% now, for more information please follow the link in this thread:

If the Roadmap of Arca Noae will come true (Uniaud refresh, and Intel WLAN Drivers) wihtin this Year one will be able to use the Sony Vaio Pro 13 with a lot of benefits  :)
