I'll backup that claim. I am currently running Warp 3.0 with FP#31 and a
ESS1868 sound card, no problems what-so-ever. Even managed sound in WinOs2.
However moving to FP#32 causes traps with the ESS driver. Any version of ESS1868
driver fails.

Having passed a few EMails with an IBM employee, I was told that the ESS
problem will be address in the next round of public FixPak... whatever the
number will be.

So, unless you need Y2K fixes for Warp 3.0 right now, just wait a bit and it'll
get fixed pretty soon... <G>
