I hate to sound like a broken record... but...

Has anyone gotten Warp-II (or even GA) to work well with a
Diamond Stealth64 PCI video card?

All I get from IBM is "We don't have drivers for that, you'll
have to talk to Diamond" ... and the Diamond folks don't seem
to have any clue as well...

Tnx,
-Eric

Welcome to the wonderful world of Diamond!  Diamond has some really
ANAL problems with making their specs available so that drivers can be
written for things like OS/2 and Linux.  While they may be on the top
of the video heap now, I personally believe that they will regret this
policy as it *will* be their downfall as the market will eventually
move away from Diamond.

"HEY DIAMOND!, WAKE UP"
