This is a low severity * problem that results from using RESTART * OBJECTS (specified in CONFIG.SYS). Customers * will notice that, upon rebooting their system, * they will have a duplicate desktop folder. * This folder can be easily, manually closed * with no further customer impact. * * "Closing applications results in cross-hatched PJ11814 * icons." After an application terminates, the PJ12544 * cross-hatching (which indicates the application * is executing) should disappear. Intermittently, * this is not happening. Despite the cross- * hatching problem, the applications close * successfully and the customer's work is not * interrupted. The cross-hatching disappears * upon re-boot. * * "System hangs upon exiting Forbrowse." PJ13370 * This problem results in a Trap D and is a * high-severity problem. However, it only * affects customers running Forbrowse. * Customers who are not running Forbrowse have * not reported this problem. * * "Workplace logon shows on first boot on remote PJ13647 * IPL client." This very low severity problem * only affects client workstations that are * being remotely IPL'ed from a server. If a user * clicks on an object, the logon disappears. * There is no further customer impact from this * problem. ************************************************************************ * * Special Instructions for Marketing Reps, SEs and Field Support: * * The files contained in this package may be distributed to * IBM customers who are already licensed owners of OS/2 Version * 2.x, or by IBM marketing/service personnel authorized to service that * customer. * ************************************************************************ BRWPPK ZIPBIN *
