	There are currently no Tseng or S3 OS2 drivers.  Although you can ftp
   some orchid beta drivers that marginally work with ET4000 cards.  The color
   palette is screwed up though.  On the other hand the ATI Ultra cards are 
   8514 compatible and OS2 has built in support for that.  I think thats what
   he meant.
