- I have seen some references regarding the use of SVGA ON in order to
- enable svga support in os/2 2.0. However, when I issue the command
- from a full screen DOS session, I get the error message: syntax: SVGA
- <ON|OFF> and nothing is created in the directory. What am I doing wrong?
-
- As a second question (which probably needed to be asked before the
- preceeding one :-)), what exactly does SVGA ON do? I can currently run
- WIN-OS/2 full-screen in svga mode but when I switch back to the WPS my
- display is scrambled. Is SVGA ON supposed to fix this. I am running a
- United Solutions IMAGE-1024 board which came with drivers which have
- 'oak' in their names (I don't know if this is any indication of their
- origin). Thanks for any answers.
-
- P.S. Answers will be accepted in any order :-).
