[In reference to Xenix and VGA]
I tried the Vega VGA with 2.2.1 and it dosn't work. I resets the
computer when it appearently about to display the configuration.

I coundn't agree more. I've been caught many times
between a hardware and a software companys "who's doing what wrong",
and the bottem line came out of my pocket. Better yet they can
write them and distribute them through public domain channels.
