- I was very angry when I discovered the VESA driver that came with my ATI
- Graphics Ultra Plus only supports 8bit color! how stupid..
-
- Does anyone know if there is a VESA driver supporting 15bit or 24bit color?
- I find this VESA driver very underpowered.. It is inexcusable to pay $340
- for a SVGA card with acceleration, and then get this kind of driver
- support!
-
- I must say though, the Windows drivers work fairly well..
