It's been some time since I've seen those patches pass through (it's also possible I missed the patch your talking about), but if I remember correctly there were a couple different reasons they were rejected. It sounded like the issue was that they reported a driver that doesn't exist and/or that the registry key manually specified a driver. My suggestion is that there's a "try to report the manufacturer driver" type registry key and that it, when activated, reports a real driver. This real driver then funnels the requests back to winex11.drv (with room to add additional non-funneled requests later, such as requesting the card's video RAM). Erich Hoover ehoo...@mines.edu
