Daniela's Texas Instruments Cardbus Driver^ (from Timo Maier)
Socket Services Driver which supposedly supports all TI cardbus bridges. Based on the IBM2SS14 v3.0/1.01.00 driver.
Description
Whilst the socket services driver for TI cardbus bridges IBM2SS14.SYS provied by IBM does it's job, it supports only some of the many TI chips. To get IBM2SS14 working on my Dell notebook I patched the driver at some places such that it detects *all* TI cardbus chips now (see list below). There is no guarantee that it will work properly on chips other than the originally supported ones!
List of supported chips
The chips supported by IBM2SS14.SYS are marked by 'x'.
  • PCI1031 PC card CardBus Controller AC13
  • PCI1130 PC card CardBus Controller x AC12
  • PCI1131 PC card CardBus Controller AC15
  • PCI1210 PC card CardBus Controller AC1A
  • PCI1211 PC card CardBus Controller AC1E
  • PCI1220 PC card CardBus Controller AC17
  • PCI1221 PC card CardBus Controller AC19
  • PCI1225 PC card CardBus Controller x AC1C
  • PCI1250 PC card CardBus Controller x AC16
  • PCI1250 PC card CardBus Controller x AC55
  • PCI1251 PC card CardBus Controller x AC1D
  • PCI1251B PC card CardBus Controller x AC1F
  • PCI1260 PC card CardBus Controller AC18
  • PCI1260 PC card CardBus Controller AC30
  • PCI1410 PC card CardBus Controller AC50
  • PCI1420 PC card CardBus Controller x AC51
  • PCI1421 PC card CardBus Controller AC53
  • PCI1450 PC card CardBus Controller x AC1B
  • PCI1451 PC card CardBus Controller AC52
  • PCI4410 PC card CardBus Controller AC41
  • PCI4450 PC card CardBus Controller AC40
  • PCI4451 PC card CardBus Controller AC42

Status
This is derived work of an exisiting IBM driver.
This driver is *unsupported* !!!

vCOMPAT 0.23b (from Martin Kiewitz)
vCOMPAT is a special VDD, that will fix some issues in VDMs to further enhance compatibility. It contains plenty of fixes and some of them are user-controlable via Properties.
Changes this time:
  • COMPATIBILITY_CDAUDIO got renamed into COMPATIBILITY_CDROM It includes all CD-ROM specific fixes and a new one, that caused some installation software to believe that A: would be a CD-ROM

New LXAPI32.SYS/BT32.SYS (from Stefan Milcke)
Stefan Milcke released a new version of the device drivers LXAPI32.SYS/BT32.SYS for OS/2 FP#13 or higher and eCS.

LXAPI32.SYS is a linux api layer for easy porting linux drivers to OS/2. New with this release: Parameter /NOPCINAMEDEVICE If you get a trap 0e on startup and installed SEC32.SYS then include this parameter. This prevents LXAPI32.SYS from reading PCI.IDS which causes the trap.

BT32.SYS is the linux port of bttv, the driver for BT8x8 based capture cards. Included is a small sample application to watch TV and hear radio.
