- Actually, I don't think that's quite correct. If you want to support the
- new pallette features, as well as having a seamless Windows interface
- (which is the major reason to write 2.0 specific drivers at the moment),
- you will need a 2.0 specific DDK, as these features didn't exist in 1.x.
- At least, that's what I've been given to understand; I'm sure that the
- net will correct me if I am wrong here.
