Presenter

Notes

Scanning in OS/2

Mark Henigan

A serious business user compares, contrasts, and demonstrates the currently most helpful scanner drivers and OCR software for OS/2-eCS.

USB Driver Development

Gregg Young

The current USB stack was last updated by IBM in 2005. While the source code to the latest driver (10.162) is not available to us the 10.100 source was released with the DDK. A team is currently working to update this code to the 10.162 level then fix the known bugs and extend the functionality of the drivers.

An Introduction to the GL/2 Project

Dee Sharpe

The primary goal of the GL/2 project is to provide a framework for hardware accelerated 3d support to OS/2-eCS. A secondary goal is to provide an open sourced, non-encumbered video driver development kit for OS/2-eCS

Virtualization

Chuck McKinnis

As today's hardware gets more and more powerful, running eCS in the virtual environment becomes more and more viable. This session will explore the various options available for running eCS in a virtual machine under both Windows and Linux.

Multimedia & AvXCat

Andy Willis

Networking

Lewis Rosenthal

This session will deal with current driver technologies available, including the status of native drivers such as those comprising the MultiMac project, as well as GenMAC and the latest news on unsupported devices known to be working. In addition, we will discuss wireless encryption technologies and how to deal with varying scenarios, particularly when there may be no control over the access point (i.e., public Wi-Fi implementations).

Programmer's Roundtable

Neil Waldhauer

A panel of developers attending Warpstock will comment on a list of topics. This presentation will give attendees a look inside the OS/2 developer's community.

Securing Your Valuable Data

John W. Edwards

A look at various methods for securing your data, including but not limited to: backups, autosave functions, USB memory sticks, USB hard disks, Network Attached Storage, cloning hard drives, use of RAID drives

eCS, large floppies and MTPSync

Stuart Updike

Presentation has been withdrawn

Demonstrate that eCS can read and write to FAT32 large floppy devices. How to install and use MTPSync to communicate with various cameras and MP3 players.

Skype Session with Eugene Gorbunoff

Eugene Gorbunoff

TBA – via Skype

Skype Session with Roderick Klein

eComStation Update

Steven Levine

Steven is involved with many aspects of eComStation development.
