I’m pretty sure I have all the latest patches.
#1 problem:
I’ve had problems with minimizing and restoring DOS text programs that
I’ve run directly from an icon. With Telemate, if I press Alt-Esc to
get out of the full-screen mode, and then go back, the screen is
blank. Then if I make it into a window, it’s a bunch of graphic
garbage. Also, Norton Utilities (the menu) gets blinking text that was
supposed to be high-intensity, when I do the same thing. The funny
thing is, though, that if I go manually into a DOS shell and THEN run
a program, everything is fine.
#2 problem:
This is with Win-OS/2. I just installed AmiPro 3.0, and when I try to
run the Quickstart Tutorial, it says something like "the tutorial will
not run with the large system font installed."
I am running a 486/33, 8MB with an Orchid ProIIs (ET4000) video board
in 1024×768 NI mode.
Suggestions?

I ran into a somewhat different problem with the AmiPro tutorial. It
started all right, but quickly lost its place, became disoriented, and
crashed. No message about "large system font[s]," though. AmiPro
documents seem to work just fine; I think there was just something about
the tutorial that my system didn’t like.
Perhaps by pure coincidence, the DeScribe (native OS/2) readme file
looks like a mess on my system, with letters crammed together or
duplicated and bits of text fractured and strewn about the page. But no
problems with my own DeScribe documents.
Cheers,
David

I had this problem and solved it by using the vvga.sys and/or the vsvga.sys
from the December beta. Email me if it doesn’t work and I can give you
more details.
