- John, I've experienced exactly your problem, and I don't have a fix either.
- I've been loathe to post my problem here (there is no shortage of
- confused people with Tseng boards), but I'm also at wit's end.
-
- My "Diamond Speedstar" card is the DS Plus card that Gateway was
- distributing earlier this year.
-
- I began experiencing this immediately after I executed VMODE custom for
- 1024x768 resolution. Sony 1304 monitor. DOS sessions work okay, PM
- works okay, but OS/2 command-line sessions are out of sync.
-
- Also out of sync are the device-driver messages that are issued when
- OS/2 boots up. You can't see chkdsk errors anymore.
-
- You can enter "mode co132" in the OS/2 command-line session and get
- an in-sync 132 column display.
-
- I'll take any suggestions, too.
