Well, I tried version 0.40 -- SAME problem.  Once again, I get:

The system detected an internal processing
error at location ##0160:fffa3bb4 - 000d:00049bb4.
60000, 7016
038600d1
Internal revision 6.307, 92/03/01
The system is stopped.  Record the location number
of the error and contact your service representative.

This time I tried it *without* the X00v149a fossil.  So I now know it
wasn't the fossil's fault, it is the SIO driver itself who is at fault.

You really have absolutely no idea how pissed off I am getting.  Linux
is starting to look better and better.

OS/2 is great -- but if I can't even use the COM port (something my
system is used for 90% of the time) it's usefulness diminishes.

Please help!
