Installing the OS/2 V2.1 Drivers
The OS/2 V2.1 256 color accelerated driver supports the GD5428
chip.
Run CLMODE.EXE or Video Adapter Utility program to select
monitor type. The IBM DISPINST.EXE program calls SVGA.EXE
to identify the SVGA chipset before display driver installation. The
IBM SVGA.EXE shipped with OS/2 2.1 does not correctly ID the
chipset. Run CLINST21.CMD to update SVGA.EXE with the new
Cirrus SVGA.EXE before calling DSPINSTL.EXE to help OS/2
identify the chipset correctly. If you are having trouble installing the
OS/2 V2.1 drivers, rename the IBM SVGA.EXE to SVGA.IBM and
copy the new SVGA.EXE file to the OS/2 subdirectory. During
installation, the target file may have a newer date than the source
file. If so, select the
Yes button when the installation program
displays this message. Information about SVGA.EXE can be found
in the
OS/2 User Manual.
The accelerated drivers for OS/2 2.1 require 1 MB of memory on
the driver card. If you have a card with 512 KB of memory, use the
standard OS/2 drivers.
