#: 21316 S14/misc/info/Soapbox 20-Dec-95 09:17:56 Sb: Need ITV Programmers Fm: Craig German 72752,2336 To: all Interactive Engines is hiring software product developers and consultants in the D.C. area. If you know of any exceptional individuals who are just itchin' to be part of the interactive television market in an aggressive startup, e-mail me at 72752.2336. Background ---------- We designed and implemented the authoring system being used in the Bell Atlantic Stargazer Interactive Television (ITV) trial in Northern Virginia and in the Telecom Italia VideoMagic ITV trial in Rome, Italy. We assisted in the design of an Internet advertising product for another startup firm. We designed, produced, and implemented the ITV-home computing application that Novell showed in their CEO's keynote speech and in their booth at Comdex. And we have the ear of many more Fortune 500 and large international companies regarding ITV services and products. Our products are currently targeted at ITV service providers who have a need to produce robust, compact, high-performance, engaging multimedia applications on a regular basis in a cost-effective manner. We understand the needs of this community from past experience and market research. Our ideal consultants are at ease with client interaction and respect the philosophy, "The customer is always right". Our consultants need to be self-starters and problem solvers who believe in producing quality work. People and project management skills are a huge plus. Fairly substantial travel is involved in most of our contracts, especially upon delivery; travel schedules are often somewhat unpredictable. Our ideal product developers are eager to stay on the cutting edge of interactive distributed application technologies. They're always coming up with ideas that everyone else thinks are crazy until a company goes public for billions of dollars 3 months later with the same ideas. These same developers recognize the value of disciplined, methodical software implementation. They're also in tune with the needs of developers that will use our products, without giving in to "feature frenzy". We'd like our consultants and developers to be experienced with at least several of the following technologies: multimedia application production embedded applications networked multimedia applications distributed object architectures (CORBA) interactive television application development collaborative multimedia development GUI development tool design languages (C, C++, Java) multi-tasking OSs (Windows, UNIX, Mac, OS-9) database design application porting Please send resumes through e-mail.

It's not in my manual, which goes up to 174! I've replaced the SCSI drive in my system (running OS9 V2.4) with a new larger one (now 1GByte), and every time I try to access /fh0 to format it, or /h0 to access it normally I get 'Error 175'. I've spent all week trying various combinations and experimenting, and got nowhere. Both drive and interface are O.K. - it's a compatibility problem. Full details if anyone can shed any light. Incidentally, has anyone ever got satisfactory technical support out or Microware U.K? Les Wilkinson. #: 21423 S14/misc/info/Soapbox 15-Jun-96 10:05:25 Sb: #21412-Error #000:175 Fm: Timothy J. Martin 71541,3611 To: Les Wilkinson 100350,262 I have had problems with A certain Seagate 1 GB Fast SCSI II drive. I have had fairly frequent error #175 using MVME162LX and OS-9 Version 3.0.2. Hotline has thought about it and basicly ends up saying that that particular Fast SCSI II drive may not work properly with OS-9. I will likely get around to trying MVME162LX and OS-9 V 2.4 also. Sorry, I'm not where I can get to the actual drive model number. #: 21424 S14/misc/info/Soapbox 15-Jun-96 10:07:22 Sb: #21412-Error #000:175 Fm: Timothy J. Martin 71541,3611 To: Les Wilkinson 100350,262 Oh yes, error #175 is "Hardware damage has been detected". I have tried three Seagate drives of the same model and two different MVME162LX boards, I continue to get this error. I assume it is an OS SCSI driver and hardware incompatability.
