- I experience this problem also. The original 16bit trident
- drivers did not work well at all. Well IBM service thought that it might
- well be a driver problem. Your experience seems to confirm this.

- Hopefully Trident will fix this sometime real soon now. Because it could
- get pretty useless otherwise. Apparently this driver problem is addressed
- in the next release and we will all be able to put this at rest. Probably
- at the great releif of the people at BOCA.
