2roberto: Why do you think it is incompatible with an USB drive? I have no problems with this. You are, obviously, wrong.
With this line in the config.sys plus the program Watchcat
DEVICE = C: \ OS2 \ BOOT \ USBMOUSE.SYS / DEVICE: 1
With Lars 10.210 USB Drivers
After starting the pc, the usb with an external memory unit with fat32, works well. But after running the VirtualBox with xp, and closing it. The usb no longer works, even if you run the lvm / rediscoverprm.

With this one in the config.sys plus the program Watcat
DEVICE = C: \ OS2 \ BOOT \ USBMOUSE.SYS
With Lars 10.210 USB Drivers
Sometimes everything is fine, sometimes it fails, but not always.

I have not tested it with the usb11.14

I will not tell you if scribus works in Ecs2.0 or 2.1
But I have installed it in Ecs 2.2 beta2 without any problem and in a few minutes. The probe simply worked perfect and erased it,
Because I like the True Spectra more, it is smaller, it is simple and it has the Rexx Api. And now it's free was in Hobbes.
Nor do I make extreme use of the program, small advertising campaigns.
What I can tell you is that in Ecs2.0 or 2.1, you have to be very careful not to have duplicate dlls, or old versions installed.
In Ecs2.2b2, this is greatly facilitated with the application anpm.exe, which helps you to have updates to the day with a few clicks,
And warns you of potential dll problems that are not compatible with the new ones.
To find duplicate dlls you can use BSinfo, or other programs. I think if you fail it is for an incorrect installation.

I do not know this program, but go to test it.

This watchcat program is very interesting. But after trying it, I had to remove it, as it is incompatible with my external USB drive in OS / 2.
And with the Vbox, it slows me down a lot, to the point of not working well.
It is uninstalled.

2roberto: So, what's the result? VBox hanged?
No hang, I start with a ram aprox. 1400mb, and display a title box Vbox Guru... but I lost the graphic display, and the control over the program, and decide to kill it.

Did not understood about mouse notepad and changing the icon.
The problem is that in a  white whidow, the mouse is white too, and I lost it to my eyes. In this capture the mouse is black (similar a I leter over the second L in hello), but repeat I see white. See photo.

Overall I really like this beta. I am using OS / 2 host and xp as guest.
Important problem: During the optimization tests, I had to kill the virtualbox, and the memory I had in use at the time in the Vbox, it has been locked in OS2, preventing me from restarting xp, until restarting OS / 2 .
Other small problems:
The mouse notepad.exe gets almost transparent and in other similar windows, and changing the icon does not solve the problem.
During the installation of Java 8 ..., the printer, and some other program I have seen small graphical errors, that have not affected for its operation.
If I access a JFS drive it works fine. But if I access a FAT32 drive, the performance is very very slow, but it works !!!
In my case the best balance of memory and screen, have been 768mb of 4gb and 74mb of 128mb screen.

Martin send to me this in this foro :

That the machine/processor is 64bits it is not a problem. A 32bits can run on a 64bits processor, for the majority of PCs I was able to try.

To be honest, I can not know which modern laptop model to recommend, I can only dare to say:
- Check if the BIOS has UEFI legacy mode available. You will need put UEFI on Legacy mode if you want OS/2-eCS to boot.
- I recommend that the machine has V-TX .. or AMD-V, in case you want to run VM's (for example OS/2 as guest on Windows host).

I think you will have  hard time finding a modern Wifi card that is compatible. We really require new drivers about it.
For the moment some idea is to get a laptop that allows you to remove the wifi card and install an older one buying it from ebay. (and that may also be a lottery)

I really hope that this changes in the future with the release of Blue Lion, but that is on 3Q of 2016.

My opinion:
Lenovo or Hp, i7, 4gb ram minimun, nvidia more mb better, and leave some money to upgrade with www.Arcanoae.com
At this point I am thinking of using only OS / 2 with a VitualBox as guest xp or win10. Although for now I am using dual boot.

This does not make clear, what it does with USB mouse. (I have USB mouse and all works fine)
The mouse work fine in my laptoop too.

What do you mean by "intro"? Are you installing WinXP or what? As I remember, WinXP does nothing with mouse, it is keyboard-driven.
Yes, I am install a win-xp and in the first, only is need the keyboard, but for any reason the keyboard is block, only unblock when unplug the mouse.

Does this OpenScad trap with Windows host? What does VBOX_USER_HOME with USB mouse? Nothing understood.
???

I finaly resize the window to 1272x722, the trick is disassemble additions, resize the framework of vm to maximum size, and restore.
All is ok now, you can see

What are problems with keyboard and why are you need to unplug USB mouse?
At the beginning of the installation, the system asks me if I want to install press enter, exit = F3, etc ... The mouse stays fixed at a point. I pulse intro, and everything is blocked. I unplug the usb-mouse, plug it in, and the program continues with the last keyboard instruction that was intro.

But if I run the OpenScad program on win-xp 32, the program crashes and I have to unplug plug the usb-mouse,
To continue.
Does it crash on windoze VBox version? Didn't understood about the USB mouse.
This problem is resolved as follows.
In config.sys I have this:
SET VBOX_USER_HOME = Y: \ VBOXBETA
And change in Configuration - General - Advanced - Instant Folder to this folder Y: \ VBOXBETA

Run the WinXP guest and mount the ISO as a CD drive.
For the WinXP Addons you need to install "VBoxWindowsAdditions.exe" from the VboxAdditions506.iso inside the Window XP Guest.
Thanks, Martin. This help me very much, for install additions.
The ironic thing of this, is that after installing the additions, the resolution of the screen had it in 1024x768 in vm-win-xp, then with additions, the screen resolution is 800x600.
The advantage is that I can access the disk drives, but in my case I almost prefer to lose the disk drives, having a shared NAS drive.

My first impressions with Vbox:
After installing it, I install win-xp, and during the installation I have problems with the keyboard,
To confirm the first installation screens of xp, having to unplug the usb-mouse and plug it in again, so that
The options will be confirmed, until with the mouse I can finish the installation.

The network works for me, the sound does not.
Firefox was good.
But if I run the OpenScad program on win-xp 32, the program crashes and I have to unplug plug the usb-mouse,
To continue.

On the other hand I have downloaded the VboxAdditions506.iso, but I will not install it, if anyone can help me to install it ?.
 I have read the readme C: \ OS2Additions \ OS2 \ readme.txt but it does not make sense what it says, or it is wrong, or I do not understand it.

Type 2 The sound does as a loop, similar to a siren or alarm. (Giving to close the firefox and cancel continuous sound correctly)
About this fail, Runing in command com with
[D:\usr\bin]ffplay   mifile.avi
and click the left mouse button, many times over the video, this give me the error
but if I run this
[D:\usr\bin]ffplay   -thread_type 8 myfile.avi   
I can not crash the sound. The default is 3

I apologize, it was my mistake.
Thunderbird had configured in this notebook, with Lucide 135GA, not the version 140. And when I open the document with the previous version the problem occurred.
However the difference in pdf opening time is about 20 seconds if I open from Thunderbird with Lucide. And 2 seconds if I open it directly with Lucide.

628

I recently received an email from a supplier known to me, with an attached PDF.
Thunderbird show me in the message this:
To protect your privacy, Thunderbird has blocked remote content in this message. and a button Preferences

option A- I do nothing with this message. I miss him completely. And I open the attached pdf, it takes me 28 seconds to open 40k. one page.???? But it is open ok.
option B- If instead of opening it from the thunderbird, I say from the thunderbird * save as *, I keep it on my hard drive and open it with lucide, it takes 1 or 2 seconds to open.

With option A, if I tell the Lucide, save as, in all cases the Save as failure, but does not show any error.
With the option B- If I tell the Lucide Save as, save it correctly.

After seeing this problem look at popuplog.os2 and showed me this:

PMMERGE.DLL 0004:000ff331

I preferred to send this issue to this list, because I still have not clear whether the problem is in the Lucide in Thunderbird, or even a pre Thunderbird problem.
If other users are aware of these differences, then you could open the ticket where appropriate.

In my case after many tests, with this configuration works best is like me.
1-Disable the screen saver.
2-amouse:
wheel - set audio volume -select- page 3-5
Timing mpr 200
ma default
acceleration threshold 0

3-config.sys:
DEVICE=C:\OS2\BOOT\USBMOUSE.SYS /DEVICE:1
rem SET KAI_AUTOMODE=UNIAUD
SET KAI_AUTOMODE=DART
rem 0,1,o 2
rem SET MOZ_ACCELERATED=0
rem SET NSPR_OS2_NO_HIRES_TIMER=1

In all tests and settings, I failed with two different errors,
Type 1 is for video and sound, stop the play. (I fix unplugging and plugging back usb mouse continuous)
Type 2 The sound does as a loop, similar to a siren or alarm. (Giving to close the firefox and cancel continuous sound correctly)
I work sometimes minutes and sometimes even hours without problems.
I'm not using Smplayer
