Hello everyone,

I'm trying to run gs2.4 on my 486 with an ati ultra.  I've got an
okidata 390 (24 pin) which is epson lq compatible.  I can't get any
resolution higher than vga to work on my monitor (i've loaded the 8514
adapter prior to running gs), and the epson driver messes up.  

setup:  I set bgiuser=n.ibm8514  (n = 1 to 10, nothing works)
	
	Command line (for hardcopy): gs386 -sDEVICE=epson -r180x180 file.ps

any idea what's wrong here?  when i got gs2.3a there was something in
the docs about a fix for the epson driver.  is the problem still around
for it, or what's going on.

any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

andy
