On the 3/60 main board, on the same jumper block as the memory bank select and
the Ethernet select jumper pins, is a set of jumpers which is supposed to
select between standard (1152 x 900) and extended (16?? x 12?? ???) display
resolutions for the default bwtwo hardware.
I've put a cg6 into my 3/60 recently, and what I'd like to know is does this
jumper affect the colour screen size as displayed using the cgsix device driver
so that I end up with a big colour screen size? Now that I'm running X11R6 on
my 3/60 I'm finding 1152 x 900 to be a little too restrictive when I want to
do a number of things in seperate windows that don't overlap too much. A larger
display size of whatever that jumper enables on the mono portion of the fram
buffer would be great, but can it be used with a cg6 to make the colour display
bigger?
Thanks in advance....
Regards,
Craig.
