Software I have had problems with:

Corel Draw for OS/2:

Sucked. Couldn't import my TIFF's or BMP's. Not only that, the "extras" (photopaint, etc.) that come with it are the windoze versions.

Win32s:

It did funky things, but no one else I know has had problems.

Hardware problems:

CD-ROM:

I'm told the Mitsumi double-spin driver has timing problems. I have encountered this problem, and IBM says there is a fix in the works. I have not checked to see if it exists yet.

Video:

None with the Mach64, but if you get a video card for use with OS/2, buy name brand. IBM's drivers are brand-specific for the most part.

Ethernet:

As with the video, name brand helps. I lucked into finding a driver that worked with mine, but a friend has a NE2000-compatible that does not work with any drivers we have found.

If you have any questions, my name is Frank Swiderski and I can be reached at fes@anarchy.tamu.edu.
