Hello, I have access to two apple A/UX boxes. One is a Mac II running A/UX 1.0 and the other is a Mac IIcx running A/UX 1.1. Both systems have 256 color cards. On the Mac II/1.0 system the scr_color program alters the screen colors as documented. I am unable, however, to make it work on the IIcx/1.1 system. I get no error message...the screen simply remains black and white. The manual entry for scr_color says: > It is only useful when > the screen is in 1 bit per pixel mode (see console(7)) and you > are using the basic terminal emulator. I am assuming that the II/1.0 system is in this mode by default and the IIcx/1.1 is not. Unfortunately, all of my efforts to put it in the correct mode have failed. I have tried altering the /etc/ioctl.syscon file to match that of the II/1.0 system and have tried using stty -g to make their stty settings identical...all with no success. Does anyone have any pointers to how I can get this working?
