The following mail is from Ralp Babel, who still hasn't a 
real net connection. Don't respond by email, post!

<CB>

Connecting a Flexko Multiscan to the A2000's TTL-RGBI output causes
the graphics.library to set GAUD and ERSY in GfxBase->system_bplcon0,
even if the monitor is switched off during reboot. As you can imagine,
the monitor's output doesn't look very cool without synchronization.

How does graphics.library determine when to set these bits?

Is there a known fix to this problem other than

    gb->system_bplcon0 = 0; RemakeDisplay();

Preferably a hardware fix inside the monitor ...

Thanks,

!ralph
