- Anyone (ET4000) remember back in the Windows age, when you
- had two sets of display drivers for the ET4000 in each resoltuion,
- one giving you large fonts, icons, caption, etc, and the other one
- giving you small. (for instance vga478.drv vs. vga478s.drv)
-
- Using OS/2 2.0 with the SP and the ET4000 drivers for 1024x768x256,
- I now get Windows Seamless in the terrible "Large fonts format".
- Using some programs, the Caption, Menu, and Buttons TAKE UP FAR
- TO MUCH SPACE.
-
- Is there some way I can get the "Small Format" I had when using
- pure Windows (using vga478s.drv, which I also use when running
- Win-OS2 fullscreen), when running Windows applications seamless??
-
- What about you other users of OS/2 (and Win-OS2). Are you happy
- with large fonts, captions, icons, etc. OR HAVE YOU FOUND ANY
- SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM??
-
- Please let me know! (Preferably by e-mail)
-
- Thanks a lot!
