[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Novell Netware 286 and VGA

godsil@hsi.UUCP (Joe Godsil) (06/05/89)

  I am posting for a friend, so please respond via email
  and I will post a summary if enough interest exists.


  Setup:
       An ATT Starlan topology lan running Novell Advanced 
       Netware 286 Ver 2.0.


  Problem:
      Purchase a PS/2 50z and add it to the network.
      Looks like the network software and the VGA memory conflict.


  Has anyone run into this before?   

  Thanks in advance!

We don't have the same setup but the resolution should be the same.  It
seems that the normal trend is to up the address of the Starlan ram as
you go up in video capability.  The trick with VGA was to drop the address
below the standard factory setting and put it at B000H.  A000H would probably
have done also but we had success with the former so we left it thata way.

Hope this helps.

Bob
