Do you realize that you missed the whole point of my question?
You stated that Microsoft has nothing to do with video drivers and is not
responsible for writing them. I asked "Who writes the VGA 640x480 16 color
driver"? The answer of course is Microsoft, which refutes your claim that
they do not write them.

Windows users who use linux and like the Windows interface == fvwm95 install
Windows users who use linux and _don't_ like the Windows interface == _no_
fvwm install
Could it be any clearer?

Do you realise you missed the point of my original statement? Whether or
not MS supplies (very) generic drivers for various resolutions, the choice
as to whether your hardware is supported under Windows lies with your OEM,
not Microsoft.

OK, so they supply a generic 640x480 driver (Windows setup has to use
something to drive the display), and probably a generic 800x600 and a
1024x768 driver as well, but the choice as to whether your hardware is
supported by Windows is entirely driven by your OEM. You may have refuted
my claim that they do not write them, but have not refuted my claim that MS
has nothing to do with whether your card is supported or not. Speak to your
OEM if the generic drivers don't work.

No. To take that parallel back to programming it would be like if you
have ever based a program on a GPL'd program you can never ever make
a non-GPL program again. That is wrong.
A more correct parallel would be: "You're free to listen to my speech, so
long as you never charge anyone else _for the text_ of a speech you make
_that is based on mine_." You can sell tickets if you like.
That said, I'm more for LGPL.

You know Bob, I was proving a point about about total output, and how
North America having a deficit doesn't mean the rest of the world has a

For what? Speaking openly in a public forum? You know that abuse would
tell them to get lost and with your insipid talk they should go after
you. Tim Martin of all people got pics to reprimand you for abuse of
