Date: Mon, 7 Nov 94 10:36:40 MST From: kyeanopl@amazon.den.mmc.com (Karl Yeanoplos) Warp installed with no problems and correctly sensed all installed hardware. APM was automatically installed, the PCMCIA drivers were all installed and configured correctly, and SVGA video drivers were even installed without having to endure the selective install routine. This is completely correct. However, I'd like to point out that it's important to ignore all of the instructions for Installing OS/2 that come in the ThinkPad users's booklet. Obviously you did this and had a clean install -- I had to do the installation twice because I followed those instructions the first time. However, I did do two things differently: I installed the ThinkPad features programs from the utility disk, and I upgraded the PCMCIA drivers because the ones included with Warp did not correctly configure my Ethernet card. I used the "os2pcm" beta drivers, installing the two relevant files by hand. For some reason, Warp doesn't include a Resource Map Utility for PCMCIA -- and my Ethernet card seems to require it (although my modem worked fine with the original Warp PCMCIA support). Power management problems abound, all related to running on AC power. The machine enters suspend mode OK but will not recover without pushing the reset button (restart). Can anyone else verify these problems? I want to make sure that it isn't just me before I call IBM to demand a fix. It seems like we've been living with these problems long enough, and let's face it - the power management schemes are useless if they force a machine restart every time you use them. Thanks, I did not experience such problems. My ThinkPad 755C suspends and recovers properly. I don't think installing the ThinkPad features would affect suspending, but I could be wrong. For the record, I used version 2.00 of the utility diskette for the installation.
