I am currently writing an OS/2 device driver which uses the DevHlp
service Block to suspend the calling thread for 30ms.  The problem is
this; Block is returning with a value of 1 in AL meaning that it had
some sort of "unusual" wakeup.  Does anyone know where I can find out
what type of unusual wakeup a 1 is?  I have tried talking to IBM about
this on IBMLink, but their response is pretty slow.  Any help on this
matter would be greatly appreciated.

Also, in response to someone looking for a public domain OS/2 BBS, there
is I believe a two line OS/2 system running at 805-582-9306.
