But how do I get Context to produce a dvi file?

Thanks! That works after excising some grqphics. Just as a matter of curiosity, why is the parameter --dvips and not dvi?
Simple explanation: because it generates a PostScript file as well ;)
But I'm supporting you in that question. I would also prefer to have a switch --dvi which would skip the "dvips" postprocessing part.
--nobackend beware: there is no 'dvi' as such, there is alwasy backend specific code involved
And an answer to those who were wondering if ConTeXt doesn't produce dvi by default. Yes, it did once. And still does if you're using the old perl script "texexec.pl" which is becomming more and more deprecated (and not supported any more anyway).
