- Hi all,
-
- I have an interesting problem trying to get OS/2 running in an SVGA mode.
- Specifically, I have an old Paradise-based AST video card with 256K that
- I'd like to run at 800x600x16 resolution, using Joel's excellent drivers.
- The trouble is that I can't seem to get SVGA ON to work. When I try it,
- the result is:
-
- C:\OS2>svga on
-
- SVGA: PMI File Generator (v1.01).
- Usage: SVGA <ON | OFF>
-
- which is rather discouraging. Does this reflect some strange incompatability
- with my video card? I'm kinda confused...
