Cześć wszystkim Warpowiczom,
Prosiliście na forum o strony wyjaśniające FixPaki. Aby nie tracić czasu, którego nie mam ostatnio zbyt wiele, umieściłem w Warpowisku oryginalną stronę z serwera IBM. Nie jest to eleganckie rozwiązanie, dlatego będzie tymczasowe - na początek. Jak tylko sprawdzę adres (bo nie wiem skąd mam tę stronę :-) ), zamiast tekstu pojawi się odpowiedni odnośnik.

A problem with MOUSE.SYS has been found after FixPak 5 is installed on some systems. Mouse movement becomes slow, feels sluggish.
To recover, restore the VMOUSE.SYS from the FixPak archive directory.
This problem will be fixed in all NLV FixPak 5 and US FixPak 6 releases.
Dump Formatter and symbols file for various OS/2 Fixpaks can be obtained from:
ftp://service.boulder.ibm.com/ps/products/os2/fixes/debug/
Files begining with the last 4 characters of the Fixpak name are the ones you need to download. For example, all files starting with w034*.* are for Warp 3 Fixpak XR_W034, m004*.* for Warp 4 Fixpak XR_M004, ETC.
Through Warp 3 Fixpak XR_W028, the files are:
Starting with Warp 3 Fixpak XR_W029, the files are:
SMP means you are running Warp Server SMP
UNI means you are running any of the other Warp 3.x family
Through Warp 4 Fixpak XR_M004, the files are:

This replacement OS2KRNL for OS/2 Warp 4 Fixpak XR_M003 fixes a problem that was causing some SYS2070 traps. It is also required for the new IBM Feature Install Version 1.2.
Additonally, if you are having problems running some applications after installing FP3 you should also try this replacement OS2KRNL to see if it will help.
See the FP3KRNL.TXT file for installation instructions (also included in the self-extracting FP3KRNL.EXE file).
Fixpaks for the Korean version of OS/2 Warp 3 and OS/2 Warp 4 are now available from the World Wide Web (WWW) at http://www.ibm.co.kr/ibm/product/sw_biz/down/os2.html

PSP is now making available the latest releases of OS/2 Family FixPaks, both Public and Controlled on our External Web Site. Controlled FixPaks will no longer be in restricted distribution and all customers will have open access to those FixPaks.
All FixPaks (Controlled and Public) are tested to the same rigorous levels before release.
Follow this link to the page where Download Services and Software Updates (Install from the Internet) are available.
If you get a "CSF0208 No products were found on the target system to service" message when you try to apply service (a FixPak) to your system, the cause may be an invalid SYSLEVEL.OS2 or SYSLEVEL.MPM file. look at /pbin-usa-ps/getobj.pl?/pdocs-usa/goodsysl.html for replacements.
Check here for OS/2 Warp 3 and OS/2 Warp 4 Fixpaks. "Software Updates" installable Fixpaks and diskette images for manual install are available.
IBM Internal users should look here for the same data.
Do not install LAN Server FixPaks on DSS Server or DSS Client systems. If you install LAN Server FixPaks on your DSS Severs and/or Clients, you will severely damage your system by back leveling executables and DLLs. DSS Servers and Clients may not function properly after the application of a LAN FixPak.
NOTE: This information is ONLY for internal IBM personnel who are accessing either of these servers (external customers are NOT affected):
The Boulder location has changed its Internet firewall to comply with new Corporate Internet Security requirements. As a result the procedures to access the above servers has changed. These servers are now only accessible from the Internet and no longer from the IBM Internal MPN network. You will be able to access the servers using one of the IBM socks gateways such as socks1.server.ibm.com. Full instructions can be found at "Access instructions for Boulder Internet servers."
