I've got 2.1beta to work, and I can get seamless windows to work
using the supplied 256 colour drivers (800x600 on a Trident 8900C).
However, as many Trident users know, the window scrolling is painfully
slow with 256 colours. I can get the old Trident 16 colour drivers
to work (I used them for GA+SP, including seamless) and all is happy
in WPS and Windows full screen, but it refuses to do seamless Windows.

Is there some work-around for this? I don't know which I'd rather give
up, fast scrolling or seamless. Probably seamless. I would really like
to see 16 colour support in the 2.1 official release!!!
