   ERROR DESCRIPTION:
   A User that operates with NvDM/2 V2.1 CDM Dialogs over
   OS/2 V3 Warp FullPack may experience WS hanging.
   .
   In particular, if this happens after having attempted
   an INSTALL, this CM request is not sent to the
   Client until NvDM/2 shutdown and restart is performed
   or the machine is rebooted.
   .
   Sometimes, the hang is solid and querying the OS
   to return the control (by pressing continuously
   Ctrl-Esc keys) a pop-up is prompted advising that
   CDM Dialogs are not responding: this symptom force


  OS2APAR                                                                     3

   you to kill CDM or reboot the machine.
   .
   This failing event was not reported on OS/2 2.x
   or 3.0 releases even if Boca is concerning about
   its version 3.0 GA.
   .
   More, the aforementioned failing events take place
   on the following HW and SW:
   .
   Hardware - the failing event seems to take place,
              prevalently, on fast machines like Pentium
              or 486 100Mhz based processors using a mix
              of the below listed software.
   .
   Software - OS/2 V3 Warp FullPack (8b213)
              CM/2 1.11 (with warpfix applied)
              DB2/2 1.2 (with warpfix applied)

              LS 3.01 or 4.0
              NvDM/2 V2.1 at CSD XR20460
   .
   PROBLEM STATUS AT 08/03/95
   From a kernel debug session carried out by OS/2
   Development came up a possible cause of the
   problem in a wrong value passed back by
   Digitalk SmallTalk VPMVM20.DLL to the PM shell,
   but could be, instead, the WARP FP to fail.
   .
   The problem is still under analysis and any
   develops will be posted here (this APAR).
   .
   PROBLEM STATUS AT 23/03/95
   Received and successfully tested a fixed VPMVM20.DLL
   from SmallTalk Company.
   .
   The fixed VPMVM20.DLL will be distributed with the
   next CSD XR20466 being processed.
   LOCAL FIX:
   Apply CSD XR20466 once available.
   .
   Meanwhile,Pull FIXWARP package from DM2TOOLS repository
   invoking the following command:
       TOOLS SENDTO ROMEPPC TOOLS DM2TOOLS GET FIXWARP PACKAGE
   .
   NOTE: FIXWARP PACKAGE REFRESHED ON 03/29/1995 TO REPLACE
         VPMVM20.DLL.
