- Go to the new MUI drawer which was created during the MUI installation
- and double click on the MUI icon. This will start up the MUI Prefs
- program. Now click on the Windows selection in the left hand part of
- the window which opens. In the right side of the MUI Preferences
- window, the Windows options will appear. Select all of the buttons in
- the gadgets window to on. Now click on the System selection on the
- left side and click on the Call Inspector gadget which will appear.
- Select Newthen select the new screen which should be called
- "(unnamed)", then click on edit.
-
- Give the screen a Public Name and a Screen Title (AMosaic would work
- for both) in the Attributes "folder". Now click on the folder tab for
- display and select the appropriate screenmode for the screen. You
- won't be able to change and save the colour selections if you don't
- have an MUI 3.x keyfile, so there isn't much point in changing
- anything in that folder. Click on OK and then Use or Test to check it
- out. I cannot remember if you will be able to save this information
- without a keyfile, if not you will have to redo the info after every
- reboot that you do.
-
- Once you start AMosaic, you should have four extra gadgets in the top
- right corner of the AMosaic window. The one on the left will bring up
- MUI to make AMosaic specific preference settings, though (again), if
- you don't have a keyfile, you won't be able to save them.
