- I too have an SVGA card with a WD chipset, so I decided to give them a call
- to lobby for drivers. Well, the guy on the line said that they are not
- working on the drivers (as already reported), but he insisted that they were
- "in close communication with IBM" and that IBM is writing drivers for the
- Paradise card. I questioned him again because I've seen other claims that
- this isn't true, but he stuck to his story. Can anyone help disentangle this
- riddle?
-
- Also, I looked for the vga800-1 "generic" SVGA driver on ftp-os2, and couldn't
- find anything with a name like that. Whoever knows, please verify that it
- exists and let us know where to find it.

- Thanks,
- Michael
