-
- I'm using a RetinaII(because it was much less expensive than a III, and I need a
- bigger HD) with my A3000/A3640.
-
- I had a problem with RetinaEMU opening my workbench to a 4 colour screen instead
- of the 32+ screen I wanted.
-
- Since my ECS machine can't open a hi-res screen with more than 16 colours, it
- obviously won't open a 32 colour screen even if my prefs tell it to. Some upon
- boot-up, it will open something it can handle. When RetinaEMU runs, it takes
- all open screens and pushes them to the Retina display. So it pushes a <=16 colour
- wb screen.
-
- How can I automatically reset my saved screen depth(32 or more colours) after
- RetinaEMU takes over? Or how can I start RetinaEMU before the workbench screen
- is opened? I tried putting RetinaEMU early in my startup.sequence but this
- only resulted in locking up the machine(I may have done it wrong).
-
- Currently, RetinaEMU resides in my WBStartup drawer.
-
- What is the latest version of the software? I'm using 2.3.
-
- Thanx,
-
- Jaeson K.
