Well, unfortunate I must agree with you, the new drivers are so slow
that it's almost impossible to use paintbrush.
If one tryes to draw a circle it becomes a hexagonal,
I never had this problem with window 2.xx drivers.
So I'm using the generic 800x600x16 driver instead, but I would like
to have a faster Trident 1024x768 driver.
