++ 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 (and now also: USBRESMG.SYS)
I have now placed these on hobbes.  

http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/download/pub/os2/system/drivers/misc/usbhcd188.zip



They will eventually make it into directory:
/pub/os2/system/drivers/misc  

1) USBUHCD,USBOHCD,USBEHCD: added back some code to allow booting from  

USB (not tested)  

2) USBUHCD,USBOHCD,USBEHCD: added some mutex serialization to root hub  

processing to allow to have multiple USB memory sticks attached on bootup and
have them properly detected and usable. They will appear as  

fixed disks or as removable disks (when attached while the system is booting
up).  

3) USBD.SYS: fixed a trap D error  

If you have problems with EHCI change 2) might also be relevant, please test.  

Note: I have added a beep to USBEHCD which I forgot to remove. You should hear
a beep on bootup for every USB stick attached already on bootup, possibly also
for other USB 2.x devices.
