With a similar card, under DOS, I can use either
  cirrus54.grn (8-bit only)
  cl5426.grn (8,15-bit)
  vesa111.vdr (all modes)
Under OS/2, vesa111.vdr also requires either the univesa or univbe "universal
vesa" tsr.  All three drivers came with DISPLAY
(SimTel/msdos/graphics/disk187a,b.zip at oak.oakland.edu).  Univbe is in
univbe50.zip in the same directory.  Univesa is an older version of univbe
and probably not generally available any more.  My go32 variable just says
something like
 set go32=driver e:\graphics\disp\drivers\vesa111.vdr
DISPLAY is, I think, the only graphical djgpp program I use, so I can't
guarantee that these drivers work with anything else.
