- There is now an 800x600 256 color driver as well as the 1024x768. I have
- only tried the 1024x768. For those like myself with the 1280-D (local bus)
- these drivers actually work. The older beta did not work well with the 1280-D.
- The README states that the drivers are only 16bit but have been tested with the
- CSD and work fine.
