Patch 711000 ¬
2010-07-16
Eckhart Köppen has released an improved Newton OS 2.1 patch addressing the Y2010 bug:
No duct tape of bumper case required here: Paul Guyot has come up with a way to prevent the reset to January 1st, 2008 with patch 71J059 after rebooting or power loss. I merged his changes into the next version of the Y2010 patch, version 711000[.]
He notes that there may be a minor issue with Adam Tow’s AlarmClock, which I use on a daily basis. I’ve asked requested further details and will be testing Patch 711000 on my backup MessagePad 2100 this weekend.
Update: Don Zahniser reports that he not only initially reported the issue w/AlarmClock & Patch 711000, but has since debunked it.
However, Sir Isaac discovered a Clock minute timer issue in Patch 71J059 which I’ve confirmed in both Patch 71J059 & 711000. Grant Hutchinson tested an un-patched MessagePad 2100 and found no sign of that issue. So, it’s real, but it is a very minor inconvenience.
Both my dev and primary MessagePad 2100s have been patched, so I’ll be keeping my eyes out for further issues.

'Newton Year 2010 Problem' ¬
2009-02-16
Eckhart Köppen chimed in this morning to further explain the issue that Newton OS 2.1 faces with the year 2010 and also noted that producing OS patches is, “less black magic than anticipated.”
The possible fixes, in his mind, are:
- Avi’s Fix2010
- “Create a proper OS patch for the Fix2010 code”
- “Change the offsets used by the faulty functions”
