Words from the authors of video drivers:
README.ACU:
That's the graphics driver for the AcuMos AVGA2 card.
Most of the work is derived from Hartmuts CIRRUS54.GRN and Csaba's/DJ's
STDVGA.GRN drivers, and Kendall Bennetts SVGAKT32 Super Vga Kit.
I deleted the 32k color modes, checked out the correct mode numbers and
tested the bank switching code.
This driver could be interesting for the big bunch of ESCOM AT users.
Every 'standard' ESCOM AT 386/486 here in Austria (and perhaps in Germany
too) is shipped with such a VGA card.

README.CIR:
CIRRUS54.GRN -- DJGPP graphics driver supporting the Cirrus 54xx chip series
There are new Cirrus cards on the market. We have some cards around here at
Kiel (especially on VESA local bus machines) so I set up this driver.

In addition to the text modes that were already available in the Cirrus driver,
the following two text modes are now also available: 40x50x16 and 132x50x16.
Some other text and graphics modes were added as well, two of which I should
like to mention here because they require 2 Mb (or more precisely: at least
1.5 Mb) of video RAM: 1280x1024x256 and 1024x768x65536. The driver init routine
now checks if there is enough RAM present for these two modes, and disables
them if there is not.
Finally, when using this driver with DISPLAY (version 1.57 or better), please
put the following lines in the "Bytes per line scan table for TrueColour Modes"
in CONFIG.DIS:
bytes_per_line_true=0,2048
bytes_per_line_true=3,2048

README.GUP
README 15-July-93
This is the version 1.0 release of the ATI Graphics Ultra Pro video
driver. This driver supports the following text and graphics modes:
text 80x25x2, 40x25x16, 80x25x16, 132x25x16
graphics: 320x200x16, 640x200x16, 640x350x16, 800x600x16,
1024x768x16, 320x200x256, 640x480x256, 800x600x256,
1024x768x256
To use unpack from your djgpp root directory:
C:\DJGPP> pkunzip -d atigupro.zip
And change your GO32 enviroment variable to point to the new driver:
C:\DJGPP> set GO32=driver c:\djgpp\contrib\libgrx\drivers\atigupro.grn
I have tested this driver with HIVIEW (the jpg viewer program) and it
works in all modes on my EISA card. Send E-mail
(cwolff@slowboy.intellistor.com) if you have a problem.
Note: The modetest program worked ok with ATIULTRA.GRN, but hiview did
not... I think it has something to do with selecting the colors... This
drivers does not use any of the 8514 support, so it will be slower than
atiultra (I think)...
Good luck...

README.WD
Hi,
These two drivers are for Western Digital VGA chips, the driver
WD90C3X.GRN is for the WD90C30 and WD90C31 although it might work
with other Western Digital VGA chips. If WD90C3X.GRN doesn't
work then try WDVANILA.GRN. Note that newer Paradise VGA cards
use WD90C3X chips. These drivers define modes up to 1024x768
256 colors, 1280x1024 16 colors, and 132x50 text, if you have
less than a megabyte or a more primitive Western Digital VGA
chip then not all modes will work.

drivers. Intel Corp. has no connection with these drivers. These
drivers were derived from the ET4000 driver, read the two 'copying'

SPARADIS.DOC
This graphics driver is a modified version of paradise.asm that formed part
of the original djgpp1.09 graphics drivers.
This driver cannot be guaranteed.It has been tested using modetest.c , and
all modes worked correctly.It is currently being used in a graphics intensive
program in with no problems thus far.
