I just got a new Trident 9800 SVGA 1Meg card, and the windows 3
driver disk that comes with it seems to omit the 800x600x256
driver option.. All others are supported, and get this:
The oemsetup.inf actually has the line for the 800x600x256 mode, but
its commented out! The file it would load (if it could) is t800.vdr
The 16 color version driver is w800.  I checked on simtel, and the
TVGA drivers posted there are identical to the disk i have.

Has anyone seen this driver, or has Trident just not written it yet?
