• [VOICENWS] Drivers: New USB host controller drivers: usbhcd189.zip

    From VOICE News Service@1:3634/1000 to All on Wed Mar 13 19:13:41 2013

    ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++

    From: madodelDESPAM@DESPAMptd.net

    I have updated the USB host controller drivers

    USBUHCD.SYS, USBOHCD.SYS, USBEHCD.SYS, USBD.SYS (and now also: USBRESMG.SYS)

    I have now placed these on hobbes. http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/download/pub/incoming/usbhcd189.zip

    They will eventually make it into directory:
    /pub/os2/system/drivers/misc

    1) USBUHCD,USBOHCD,USBEHCD: booting from USB should now work

    2) USBEHCD: performance should be back to normal

    3) USBUHCD,USBOHCD,USBEHCD,USBD: did some changes to improve device
    attach when devices are already attached on bootup

    a) there is currently a problem with USBD.SYS if an external hub is
    repeatedly plugged an unplugged. We are working on getting it fixed.

    b) there is not yet isochronous device support (webcams etc.) in
    USBEHCD. We are working on it.


    DO NOT mix USBUHCD,USBOHCD,USBEHCD with a USBD of different version.
    It will most likely not properly work.
