        I think I have it setup right.....I have read that there was a 
problem with WFWG and 16550A uarts running on a pentium.  That's why I 
changed the serial.386 driver which according to microsoft was suppose to fix 
this problem. But it didn't fix mine.....
        I can plot running under OS/2 but with 16megs of mem slows the system 
down.  I had to turn the buffers on in the 16550 uarts to smooth the mouse or 
digitizer cross hair movement. Running under WFWG it just won't plot, just 
hangs the system.
