Gloria-L graphics controller
   Added support for an updated ELSA GLoria-L video driver.  This driver
   contains improved buffer management for enhanced performance in OpenGL
   applications.  A fix was also included in the GLoria display driver to
   prevent it from causing an erroneous SCSI error message to appear in 
   the NT Event Log.  The Compaq Professional Workstations that may use 
   this driver are indicated in the section entitled Video Support for 
   Compaq Professional Workstations in NTREADME.HLP.

Gloria-XL graphics controller 
   Added support for an updated ELSA GLoria-XL video driver.  A fix was
   included in the GLoria display driver to prevent it from causing an 
   erroneous SCSI error message to appear in the NT Event Log.  The 
   Compaq Professional Workstations that may use this driver are 
   indicated in the section entitled Video Support for Compaq 
   Professional Workstations in NTREADME.HLP.
