 [VOICENWS] Drivers: New USB host control

++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service   http://www.os2voice.org ++ 

From: madodelDESPAM@DESPAMptd.net

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/incoming/usbhcd189.zip

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

1) USBUHCD,USBOHCD,USBEHCD: booting from USB should now work  

2) USBEHCD: performance should be back to normal  

3) USBUHCD,USBOHCD,USBEHCD,USBD: did some changes to improve device
attach when devices are already attached on bootup  

a) there is currently a problem with USBD.SYS if an external hub is
repeatedly plugged an unplugged. We are working on getting it fixed.  

b) there is not yet isochronous device support (webcams etc.) in
USBEHCD. We are working on it.  


DO NOT mix USBUHCD,USBOHCD,USBEHCD with a USBD of different version.
It will most likely not properly work.
