Subj: Java 1.18 Clobbers Netscape

From: "Casey Bralla" <NewsReader@NerdWorld.org>

I just upgraded my Java to the most recent 1.18.  Now Netscape is clobbered. 
It cannot do a DNS lookup, complaining about no DNS entry.  If I type in an
IP address, it works just fine.   Running nslookup from an OS/2 Window works
fine too, so I know the DNS setup is still good.

I've tried re-installing Netscape 4.04, but no avail.

Anybody got any suggestions?

	How did you make this upgrade?  What version did you have before?

	I upgraded mine yesterday from the last build (may 99 I think) and 
everything is working perfectly.

Salut,

Subj: New Keyboard ????

From: racette@cablevision.qc.ca (Martin Racette)

Hi guys,
 
I'm looking to get a new computer, but 
those available here, they all come with
keyboard with those "Internet Buttons", 
to fetch E-Mail, to connect, etc..., so 
I would like to know if those keyboard 
will work with OS/2 Warp 4, and if there
is any use for those buttons 
 
//-------------------------
Thank you in advance

Merci a l'avance

Subj: Help! Need Disk13 from Warp3

From: kondrag@my-deja.com

I dug out my old original redbox version of OS/2 Warp v3 to install on
an old 486 I acquired, but I'm missing diskette 13 (which I
unfortunately found out 12 diskettes into the install!).  If someone
could be so kind as to mail me a disk image of it, I'd be very
appreciative!  Please contact me at the address below before sending
anything.

Thanks in advance!

Yes and yes, but who'd WANT those stupid windoze keys? Or all the
weird extra keys they put in keyboards these days? I recently got a
Happy Hacking Keyboard Lite from pfuca.com.

From: "Graham C. Norris" <norrisg@linkline.com>

Do you think you've posted in enough newsgroups? Which one would like an
answer in? The short answer is that installing Java can't cause this, so
something else has happened. Try posting more details to just one
newsgroup.

Graham.

Righto - I have seen pictures of those keyboards and plan on
purchasing one for my next one. Currently I use a mini type 
keyboard - without the numeric keypad of dedicated cursor 
keys - and DEFINITELY without those windows keys.

I have read of at least one tool that reconfigures the stupid Windows 
key.  So I suppose all the keys can be reconfigured.

Subj: Re: New Keyboard ????

From: JHB@jita.demon.co.uk (Jim Backus)

As other have said the keyboard should work as a basic keyboard.  If you
wanted to make use of the extra keys, you might be able to get at them through
Rexx.  I've just been looking at my copy of TYR in 21 days and there are
functions that return the scan codes.  You could get a Rexx script loaded in
Startup to do something useful with them.

But like the others I positively look for 101 or 102 key K/Bs preferably
american layout as I've got used to it - they are _rare_ in the UK.

Subj: ESS1868 & IDE

I installed a ESS1868 sound card.  How do I get the IDE port to work under
Warp 3.0?  The sound works fine with the 1868 drivers but I can't get the IDE
port to work.  Under DOS it requires a device driver which enables the port. 
Is there such a program for OS/2?
