467.0. "Need DECW for VMS 5.1-TB0" by INFACT::DATZMAN (Indianapolis Field Applications Center) Thu Mar 23 1989 11:34

    Will the SDC version of DECwindows work on VMS 5.1-TB0?  If not,
    where might I find a copy of DECwindows that will work for 
    VMS5.1-TB0?  Thanks.

    Why don't you update to the VMS version for PVAX that went to SDC.
    V5.1-B? It is located at VMSKIT::PVAX$PUBLIC:[SDC], then you can use
    the SDC kit for DECwindows (DECW051).

467.2VMS051.% versus VMSU1051.%THAM01::TRINThu Mar 23 1989 22:339
    I am in the same situation as .0 but have already downloaded VMS051.% 
    and DECW051.% from VMSKIT::SYS$KITS:[VMS051]. 
                                             
    Re: .1
    
    Do I really need VMSU1051.% savesets for my PVAX? They look much
    bigger than VMS051.%. Is there any difference between these two 
    distribution kits?                   

467.3ASIA::MCLEMANJeff McLemanFri Mar 24 1989 07:413
Use the VMSU1051 savesets, not the VMS051 ones. The VMSU1051 is a remastered
VMS051 for PVAX.

    What is the difference between the VMSU1051 savesets and the VMS051.
    Sorry I do not understand remastered?.
    
    Thanks,

	VMS051 is VMS V5.1
	VMSU1051 is VMS V5.1-1.  This is a release to support new processors
	and make bug fixes...

467.6Confusion reigns!QUARK::LIONELThe dream is aliveWed Mar 29 1989 14:3715
Re: .5

No, VMSU1051 is NOT V5.1-1!  It is V5.1B, which is the complete VMS kit
for VS3100 systems.  You can install it from scratch, or possibly (I am
not sure), upgrade an existing V5.0-n system.

VMS051 is V5.1, which is an upgrade to V5.0 (or V5.0-n).  It contains only
the changes since V5.0.  

VMSU2051 is V5.1-1, an update to V5.1.

Go figure!
