- This is more a workaround than a solution, but try:
-
- Opening OS/2 cmd full screen -> lost sync. (This is probably due to the wrong
- oscillator frequency used -- maybe i'll be able to post a svgadata.pmi patch
- soon...)
-
- mode 132,44 (or 25) -> sync'ed screen in the appropriate mode
- mode 80,25 (or 30) -> we are fine.
-
- BTW: can one select to use another font than 8x8 in 132xNN mode? I have patched
- my VGA BIOS to do this under DOS and DOS boxes, but under OS/2?
