- Hmmmm. I don't know if this is wise. I just used this exact same
- fix so that my vio sessions would not get corrupted with I ran win-os2
- and it worked. I can fully multitask *all* apps now. So, I'm not sure
- I want to turn them back to the defaults. Anyway, I had the mouse
- flicker problem before I knew to manipulate those three for vio session
- problem. I'm attributing it to the 8514/a drivers....What do you think?
- If so, then I guess I'll just wait for the *real* drivers.
