Obviously not.

You need the Novell OS/2 Workstation Kit.  I've seen it available two
places.  One way to get it is to call 800-UPDATE1 and ask for it.  The
charge from Novell at that number is $30.

IBM will charge $20 if you order it from them through IBM Direct
(800-IBM-2-YOU).

Both telephone numbers are for the United States.  If you are outside
the U.S., contact your local Novell or IBM office or dealer.

Note that Novell may opt to release an update when OS/2 2.1 is
released; it should be available near simultaneously with OS/2 2.1 if
such an update is required.  Just be aware that 2.1 is presently beta.
