I installed os/2 resently on my old good computer and I just thinked that what if i download those ibm fixpacks.(Because I have novadays ADSL access.)
Im never ever before downloaded IBM fixpacks and when I looked those download list I confused those 065544xxp fixpacks in os/2 warp 3 directory on ibm ftp server.
What those packets I should download in to warp3 ???

And I'd like to add something more.
There is also some kind of kernel updates should I install them too ?

There is lots of updates and fixes.
What I should download ???

Normally, kernels are updated along while installing the fixpaks. I'd advice you to install the latest fixpaks available today (unfortunately, requires SWC, but there are enough people who will be so nice to offer you those fixpaks). I believe the latest FP was FP42, but it certainly is somewhere around 40. I also advice you to install Base Device Driver FP 3 and the latest MPTS, and printer updates. The two latters are to be found for free at the regular OS/2 FP download sites, the others via links on www.software.ibm.com/os/warp/swchoice
Good luck!

Is there anything spesific order to install fixpacks ?
eg.
xrlw032 then
xrlw035 and then
xrlw038And thanks informing me.

Fixpacks can be installed in ascending order: #32, then #35, then #38, then #40 ... or you can skip #s 32, 35, 38 et cetera and just install #42.
I think that the most recent fixpack for v3 is #43.
