Hy David,

normaly, you should have no problems with ShowDVI and Workbench 2.0. I'm working now a half year with an A3000 under 2.0 and ShowDVI. What version do you use?

Perhaps you may have troubles with your memory, because a A3000 with only 2 Megs has few memory. Look for the switches (explanation with 'ShowDVI -?') and
reduce the amount for font and bitmap space. I hope, this will solve your 
problem.
