Please read the original request carefully - the 10-X is NOT the same as the
SG-10.  The 10-X preceded the SG-10 by a couple of years.

There IS a graphics.com that works for the 10-X.  Try the IBM bbs's or
Compu$erve.  I had a version that I used until the line feed stepper died for
the second time (about $70 in parts) - I then bought a Panasonic 1080i which
does respond exactly to the normal graphics.com.  I doubt that I have a copy
of the 10-X graphics driver.

The machine belongs to the company.  The opinions are mine.
