Mail-News / Re: Advice needed
« on: April 01, 2020, 03:54:43 am »
If you want the email on different computers/tablets and they start at various times then you would have a hard time using POP or IMAP to download and delete mail from any one computer.  I think you would need a fixed "last" computer to delete the mail from the ISP and then a routine to have it deleted from all the other computers.  Have you considered storing it on a NAS device as a central repository.  I've been able to use one for data I use under ARCA and Windows on different computers.  Just a thought.

Applications / Re:Arca Noae update service is worth it!
« on: February 21, 2020, 04:42:43 pm »
I have to agree that getting support for problems and work on updates like UEFI & USB3 is worth every penny I spend.  And sending extra $$ to BitWise, etc is a good investment in the future of OS/2 - eCS -Arca !!

Some sort of Wireless would be nice, but not as important now with good Virtual Machines.

As far as recovering data from a JFS partition/volume I had good luck with JRescuer by Pavel Shtemenko.  It's worth the small cost for time saved if you don't have a full current backup.

Sounds like a hardware issue.  Could be your drive or your ram-CPU.  Might try a new Drive first with a clone of system as drives are cheap.

Off Topic discussions / Re: Haiku gets NVMe driver
« on: April 23, 2019, 04:46:18 pm »
Would be a nice item, but certainly we need wifi, USB-3, and our updated browser before we spend much on NVME drives.   I'm still contributing to updates by BWW and Arca.   Still like my OS/2 > eCS > Arca much better than Win or Apple.
Keep up the good work Martin.

Applications / Re: Apache Open Office fail
« on: December 08, 2018, 05:24:20 pm »
Packages downloaded from BWW were: 
AOO-4160-GA-base-en-US.wpi
AOO-4160-GA-langpack-en-US.wpi
AOO-4160-GA-rpm.wpi
and AOO-4160readme.txt

If you use WarpIn to open the base file it picks up and also loads the language and rpm packs.  In my case I also had to use my Arca Noae Yum installer and the info from the readme to install two more dll files.  Now everything works very well.  BitWise does great work and I have bought several support units!

I went back and did the Arca Noae Yum install and it now works.   I did the initial install and used the AOO-4160-GA-rpm.wpi and I thought the readme implied that would be satisfactory, but apparently not.  Looks like you have to do both that rpm and the other separate dll installs.
But I'm happy with the project and will buy some units of support.

Just downloaded the latest 4.1.6GA and on install got a fail message, but the dll is in the package.  Any suggestions.

Networking / Re: Fastest tcp/ip throughput in OS/2?

Thanks Daniel.  Didn't get faster on speedtest, but nice to have less ads.

I can get 112mb/sec on Windows and 42 mb/sec on Arca with the latest drivers.  Mostly seem to slow down due to CPU overload with all the ads on lots of sites.   I have a dual core athalon A6-7470 and better CPU's on Windows due to it's need for faster hardware to perform.  I do have latest Arca MultiMac drivers, but haven't tried any special editing of files.  Hope this helps.

Multimedia / Re: Sound not working on my laptop and the card was recognized
« on: September 20, 2018, 11:34:49 pm »
Seemed to me when I reinstalled Arca 5.03 I had an extra click to get the sound system installed.  Your might compare settings in config.sys with prior config.sys (if you had a backup to look at.)

Does the latest AirBoot 1.04 have improvements over 1.02?

 :D  I think the issue is that those drivers are now in the 5.0.3 iso, so not needed separately.
