Installation Notes
1. During the installation of this driver, DISPLAY.LOG and
DSPINSTL.LOG files are created in \OS2\INSTALL directory.
These files identify the OS/2 system files that were updated,
and indicate whether the installation was successful. The
DISPLAY.LOG file also contains a string that identifies the
version of driver that was installed. This information may be
important when reporting an installation problem.
2. During installation, DSPINSTL will invoke the SVGA Configu-
ration program SVGA.EXE to determine the hardware configu-
ration, and create the file \OS2\INSTALL\SVGADATA.PMI. If
this file is not created, the adapter will not be supported.
When this step is done, the display will be blanked, and you
may see a series of flashes on the display and/or what appears
to be a “corrupted” display. This is normal, as the configura-
tion process is doing Video BIOS mode sets to determine
which screen resolutions BIOS supports. This configuration
information is then used to provide the System-Settings
Resolution and Refresh selections.
