	- absolute lowest system overhead possible
	- rigorous testing


Here is what it has been tested and known to work with:

	- system sounds
	- digital audio applet
	- compact disc applet
	- CD explorer
	- bigben2
	- dmplayer 1.0
	- video player / Ultimotion (16-bit audio is nicer)

INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT:  This driver requires the MMPM CSD.  If you do not have it
installed, the installation will fail (as it should) and not add anything
to your CONFIG.SYS.  The MMPM CSD can be found at ftp-os2.cdrom.com in
/pub/os2/ibm/os2fixes as MMPMCS.DSK.  This driver has not been tested
with OS/2 2.11 (2.1 with SP applied) but I don't know of any reason why
it shouldn't work (quantum bugs don't exist until they're discovered :)).

Unzip ultra02b.ZIP to a subdirectory or floppy.  Run MINSTALL and select that
directory as source and then follow the directions.  Note that MINSTALL will
modify your CONFIG.SYS to append the driver line.  This shouldn't be a
problem as I have done it numerous times without a glitch.  Also note that
the driver can be uninstalled by selecting the number of Ultrasounds to
install as zero.

NOTE: If you have installed Dennis Ernst's driver, you may have to re-install
MMPM from scratch and then re-apply the its CSD before installing this driver.
The recommended sequence for this is:

	1. run dinstsnd.cmd in /MMOS2/INSTALL
	2. remove all references to MMOS2 drivers and DLLs from CONFIG.SYS
	3. shutdown
	4. remove MMOS2 directory and all subdirectories
	5. re-install MMPM
	6. re-apply MMPM CSD
	7. install the driver
	8. enjoy


KNOWN BUGS OR PROBLEMS

	- still clicking too much for my liking in Ultimotion
	  ... working on it

	- stereo "effect" sometimes not present in dmplayer
	  ... hit pause twice to re-enable


BUG REPORTS

Please send all bug reports, gratuitous worship, whatever, to me through
E-mail at: rjm@dretor.dciem.dnd.ca.


WHAT'S NEXT

	- virtualization (almost there already)
	- recording
	- hardware midi support
	- pestering Advanced Gravis to licence this software from me
	  (feel free to aid me in this regard).


FINALLY

I cannot emphasize enough my thanks to Brent Davis and especially Linden
deCarmo who have provided invaluable information when I needed it most.

Enjoy.  Robert.
