We bought the "Presentation Driver Reference" manual from IBM, which
had a coupon for pre-release presentiation driver code in it. We
mailed that two weeks ago and tried just any phone number we could
hunt down, but so far we got nothing...
We would like to develop OS/2 graphics drivers for our TI34020 based
family of graphics accellerators, but can't even start for lack of
documentation/sample sources.

Has anybody gotten that pre-release driver software yet?
Could you offer some information as to what exactly is contained in
the package (VGA/8514/XGA driver source?) We'd really like to get
started... (At least WINOS2 already works with TIGA drivers), but the
WPS looks downright silly at 640x480 on a 20" monitor...
Please answer via E-Mail
