LIMITATIONS:
IBM OS/2 Warp 4 limitations
APM.SYS in OS/2 Warp 4 does not issue resume notification upon suspend/resume events at the second time and after. Typical symptoms are:
- The system does not resume upon ring indicator after the second incoming call.
- Audio playback does not work after the second resume events.
If you experience this problem, apply the fix for OS/2 Warp APARJR09440.
OS/2 Warp 4 boot fails very intermittently. If you experience this problem, apply the fix for OS/2 Warp APAR JR09461.
IBM PCMCIA Infrared Wireless LAN Adapter is not recognized when it is used with Adaptec SCSI device driver AHA152X.ADD on OS/2 Warp 4. If you experience this problem, apply the fix for OS/2 Warp APAR JR09642.
A certain version of the IBM Auto 16/4 Credit Card Token-Ring Adapter fails to connect to the network intermittently with
IBMTOKCS.OS2 driver in OS/2 Warp 4. If you experience this problem, get the version 2.054 of IBMTOKCS.OS2 driver from
http://www.raleigh.ibm.com/nes/neshome.html on the Internet.
TCP/IP protocol is not removed correctly when LAN Distance support is installed with OS/2 Warp 4 and you try to remove TCP/IP protocol. As a result, the system encounters Trap D upon the next boot. If you experience this problem, apply the fix for OS/2 Warp APAR IC15805.
TranXit for Windows 95 cannot communicate with TranXit for OS/2, which was preinstalled on selected models of the ThinkPad 760ELD, 365XD, and 560. It is a limitation of TranXit.
When OS/2 Warp, Japanese version is newly installed, the font character in boot manager will be displayed incorrectly.
Other Limitations:
External CRTs that support only VGA resolution cannot be attached if the display mode is both LCD and CRT (simultaneous display) because the display port always has 800 x 600 signal as long as the LCD screen is on.
These systems support PCMCIA PC Cards that draw a maximum of 2.5 watts (0.5 A at 5.0V DC).
Enabling IR on the host system during a co-sessions host session is not supported. Use boot manager when booting OS/2 Warp from a secondary drive, such as PCMCIA Type III drive.
A suspend/resume operation during a modem application in the Windows DOS box may cause the application to hang. The modem application should be closed before entering a suspend.
A suspend/resume operation during audio recording may result in unexpected results. Audio recordings should be stopped before entering suspend.
Some optional features or applications may use the COM2 port. OS/2 Warp Version 3 will not load COM.SYS if the COM2 port is already in use. Only one such feature or application that uses the COM2 port (for example, communications or PCMCIA) can be used at a time.
The OS/2 Warp FixPak XR0W009 is required for audio and video support for Indeo**-format video file playback functions.
When using the redirector feature of the Connectivity Pack for the HP 100LX or HP 200LX to exchange data over an IR link at 115 Kbps, the ThinkPad 560 should be configured as the requestor.
At 800 x 600 resolution, the 85Hz refresh rate is not supported if 64K color is selected with an external display (CRT).
IRQ for Sound Blaster Pro is 5, 7, 10, or 11 only.
Continuous use of the HDD, such as reading long video files, will significantly impact battery life.
The system is designed so that the customer can install or remove the PCMCIA card without turning off the system, if the PCMCIA card supports this function. Refer to the instructions that come with the PCMCIA card.
When installing two Type II PCMCIA communications cards in the PCMCIA slot, there may be some cable interference that allows only one card to be used.
PC Card point enablers may write directly to the hardware, bypassing Socket and Card Services. Writing directly to the hardware may cause problems that cannot be anticipated. Also, point enablers may interfere with client device drivers that do communicate with Socket and Card Services. Additional customer testing in their specific environments is recommended.
The IBM Keyboard/Mouse Connector accessory is required when attaching an external keyboard to the system via the external input device port.
With the DSTN LCD model, and the screen in text mode, such as DOS or OS/2, full screen is displayed in extended format.
An "X-jack" type PCMCIA modem card may be used in the upper part of the PCMCIA slot to facilitate insertion of the phone cord connection by preventing interference with the table or desk.
The LCD panel can only be opened up to 135 degrees, not 180 degrees.
Other Tips and Information:
Microsoft NT Workstation V3.51 and 4.0 limitations, tips and techniques, and device drivers may be obtained, at no charge from IBM, from the PC Company BBS at (919) 517-0001 (Toll call). Also, customers with access capability, can obtain it from the Internet at FTP.PC.IBM.COM and from the ThinkPad Forum on CompuServe.
Suspend Mode Operational Considerations:
Do NOT remove or install PC cards during suspend mode.
When using Windows 3.11, ensure that the Advanced Power Management (APM) is installed.
System should be either in hibernation or off when exchanging the battery if an AC/DC adapter is not connected.
During suspend mode, the maximum power output becomes 100 mW at 12 V. During suspend mode, PCMCIA cards cannot consume more than 60 mA at 12 V.
Security, Auditability, and Control:
Standard security features:
The electronic personalization feature is like a name tag on your ThinkPad. Your name, contact address, or phone
number can be displayed on the screen when the system is turned on. This helps in case the ThinkPad is misplaced. The personal data is stored in the system's non-volatile memory and is displayed with a password prompt.
Passwords
A power-on password (POP) protects the system from unauthorized use. If a POP is set, the password prompt appears:
- Each time the system is turned on
- When the system is returned to normal operation from suspend mode
A HDD Password (HDP) protects HDD data from unauthorized users. Once the HDP is set, data on the hard disk drive cannot be accessed without the correct HDP. Because the HDP is stored on the HDD, the data remains protected even if the HDD is removed to another system. The HDP password prompt appears:
- Each time the system is turned on
- When the system is returned to normal operation from suspend mode
The user can attach the Kensington lock or similar device to the keyhole on the back of the computer. This prevents the keyboard from opening and secures the internal devices under the keyboard. It also allows tethering the system to an immovable object to make it secure.
The customer is responsible for evaluation, selection, and implementation of security features, administrative procedures, and appropriate controls in application systems and communications facilities.
