The Warp drivers for the ThinkPad work. They are much nicer than the
video drivers for OS/2 that IBM supplied with the ThinkPad for use with
OS/2 2.1 in that they are accelerated. As the README reports, though,
there is Win-OS/2 corruption on monochrome LCDs. The README indicates
that the normal VGA driver doesn't have the problem. I hope that since
IBM knows about this that they are working on a fix.
