January 23, 1997
This release has beta status
This release adds a number of new features and capabilities to PicLan
for Pick/64+ version 2.3
Pick/64+ release 2.2 is not supported with this release.
The following new features are included:
-
A Forward Link Zero "suspected" bug in PL-COPY when transferring large
number of items has been corrected. This bug was originally identified
on the Mentor PRO version of PicLan and appear to exist on all platforms.
-
The PicLan driver has been ported to 32-bit flat-model from it's original
multi-segment 16-bit protected mode implementation. This enables
a number of new capabilities:
-
The PicLan driver should be slightly faster and more efficient, although
this may be difficult to actually test.
-
Digital chipset PCI network cards are now supported.
-
As of 1/23/97, the PCI code has not been tested at Modular Software
-
PicLan-IP TCP/IP functionality is now available with PicLan-IP build 2.0.0.110
