Does OS/2 V4 support the Trident 9750 video card? If yes, does that apply for both PCI and AGP?

If you check the IBM Device Driver Online, the Trident display adapters stop at 9470. But there is a 3DImage975 card listed.

http://service.software.ibm.com/os2ddpak/html/displaya/tridentm/index.htm

I checked the Trident website (www.tridentmicro.com), but they don't go into detail about drivers, preferring to leave that up to the OEM's (doesn't sound like a good strategy to me, but...).

Both the IBM and the Trident site mention a 975, but no 9750. Could the 975 be the item you need drivers for? If so, they are available from the IBM site.

If you enter tri-975.zip in the search field on the IBM home page, that should find it for you.

Hello, I found the updated 9750 drivers at http://www.trid.com/HTML/Drivers/3DImage.htm
I'll try them today.
Besides, if anyone is interested in programming environment, check the Squeak Smalltalk-80 system, at http://www.squeak.org, that runs on many platforms (I ported it to OS/2)
