[comp.sys.att] UNIX/Hercules/6300+

samples@cypress.Berkeley.EDU.UUCP (09/02/87)

I have recently acquired a free 6300+ (so I can't look it in the mouth
very closely).  I want to install a Hercules mono-graphic card because ...
well, for various reasons.  Apparently, I can do this just fine if I
refuse to run UNIX, but that is the OS I prefer, while the work I do
under MSDOS requires the Hercules card.  When I try to boot UNIX, it
hangs, or goes into a reboot cycle when the card is installed.
Obviously, the usual screen driver in UNIX cannot handle the Hercules
card.

Is there a driver for the Hercules card available that I can install?  Do I
have to have any special (bound to be expensive) AT&T software to do the
installation, assuming such a beast exists?

Thanks,

Dain
