   ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service   http://www.os2voice.org ++    
      
   From: lars.erdmannDESPAM@DESPAMarcor.de   
      
   I have updated the USB host controller drivers   
   USBUHCD.SYS, USBOHCD.SYS, USBEHCD.SYS, USBD.SYS   
   I have now placed these on hobbes.   
   http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/download/pub/incoming/usbhcd186.zip   
      
   They will eventually make it into directory:   
   /pub/os2/system/drivers/misc     
      
   1) USBOHCD: fixed http://svn.netlabs.org/usb/ticket/22#. Everyone that   
   uses USBOHCD.SYS and cannot get any devices attached at all should use this   
   fixed version of USBOHCD     
      
   2) USBEHCD,USBUHCD,USBOHCD: partly fixed http://svn.netlabs.org/usb/ticket/23#   
   (sudden reboot on shutdown), the     
      
   remaining problems might be fixed with 3)     
      
   3) USBD.SYS: major update, changed to dynamic memory allocation for DeviceInfo   
   structures, this fixes these errors:   
   http://bugs.ecomstation.nl/view.php?id=1400   
   http://bugs.ecomstation.nl/view.php?id=3010   
   What it means in practice is that USBD.SYS will no longer trap when you attach   
   devices that return a whole lot of configuration info (some webcams from   
   Logitech being a prominent example). The device might still not be supported   
   but the trap is gone and you can look at device info from USB Dock / USB   
   device manager.     
      
       
      
   A short note (also in readme.txt): DO NOT use XCenter USB widget !   
   It's badly broken and can do all kinds of bad things to your system, including   
   a trap8 ! File readme.txt contains some REXX code that will recreate the USB   
   memory stick daemon (that came with eComStation 1.2 and that works perfectly   
   well).
