1068.0. "Latest Firmware Pointer ?" by HGOVC::SOCHUNWAH () Fri Jan 24 1997 11:48

    Hello,
    
    Could any body provide the pointer to the latest console firmware for 
    Turbolaser ?
    
    We encountered the console firmware V4.1-6 DAC960 "failed to disable 
    interrupt (vector:0) error and the "double printing of devices" error. 
    It had been explained in TIMA article [TD 2192] BLITZ that the coming 
    firware release in March will fix the problem (also, I can see that the 
    problem is not critical as system still be able to run and stop normally).
    
    Unfortunately, we are now starting a series of Turbolaser installations 
    for a NEW but BIG CUSTOMER and the end-users refuse to the sign 
    system-acceptance until we fix the problem.  
    
    I had checked http://ftp.digital.com/pub/DEC/Alpha/firmware and it seemed
    that V3.8 is currently the latest released version.  But I am afraid we
    can't afford to wait for 2~3 months for the next release of CD-ROM
    firmware.  
    
    And I need help !!
    
    
    
    Thanks in Advanced
