- Even though Joe's svga drivers do not support 256 colors or seamless windows,
- I have to say that I've had better luck with them than I've had with the
- drivers from trident.
-
-
- I do have a few complaints/comments:
-
-
- - if the desk top scroll bars appear, the windows and icons will leave
- 'dust' on the desk top.
-
- - when switching to a graphics mode in a windowed dos session, the drivers
- don't always notice the change. I have to press alt-home twice to wake
- it up.
-
- - when I try and run a 1024x768x256 color dos session in a window, I get the
- message that I a don't have enough memory to run the session in a window.
-
-
- Other than that, I have to congratulate Joe on a very good job.

- My system- 486/33 8 meg, hpfs, odi drivers, netware requestor, tcpip,
- trident video card with 3.01 bios.
