[comp.sys.ibm.pc] HELP with WYSE Multiport Adapter

kis@beach.cis.ufl.edu (Kris Iskandar) (04/18/89)

Anybody has any experience programming the WY-995?
Is there any DOS driver for it out there?  We bought this 
board from a dealer and neither he or WYSE people know about any
DOS driver for the device. The programmer's manual is real cryptic.
Please HELP, we need to use the WY-995 ASAP. Thanks.

we have the potential to get some WYSE 700 monitors at a nice price but
before we buy we want to see if there are drivers available for the
software that we regularly use and who we should be contacting.

After talking to WYSE they indicated that for some strange reason they
don't keep track of the drivers that are built for this monitor and
said that this was the software developers arena.  After phoning a few
of our software companies it seems that they have been relying on WYSE
to provide drivers or at least specs ort something like that.

How can we go about finding drivers for some of the more abundant
packages out there. currently we use the fololowing software:

Lotus 123
Lotus Manuscript
Lotus Graphwirter II
Lotus freelance 3.0
Word P{erfect 4.2
Word Perfect 5.0
Ventura 2.0
Pagemaker (i can't remember the version)
CADKEY 3.0
Harvard Graphics (newest version)
Havard total Project Manager
Lotus Agenda

I know that there are drivers for 123 and ventura but what about the
rest?  Can anyone help or provide pointers??

Thanks ever so much
