Yes indeed. Anybody out there have Trident 8900 and/or Tseng ET4000 drivers for DV? //richard

Great idea! how come video card makers (ati, tseng etc.) don't include drivers for desqview but include dozens of other drivers for other programs? pasquale@sgl.ists.ca

For those of you looking for a video driver interface to write for or an SVGA driver for DesqView, you lose. I contacted QOS a few weeks ago for exactly this information. If they don't provide a video driver for your card with DV, then there isn't a driver and you can't write one. The ones they do provide are hooked pretty tightly to DV internals, according to the tech I spoke with. You'll have to wait for DesqView/X for a custom video driver interface. However, if anyone has information to the contrary, I'd definitely like to hear about it.... -bytor
