ron@mlfarm.UUCP (Ronald Florence) (09/09/89)
After installing an upgrade from 2.2.3 to 2.3.2 for our ps2/80 --
which I ordered because the Sales Department at SCO promised "full VGA
support" -- I discover that the VGA driver in the Microchannel version
of 2.3.2 does not recognize the IBM VGA as a "graphics device". Among
the programs which will not work: vidi, setcolor, all CGI display
drivers, SCO Pro graphics drivers. SCO is aware of the problem and is
"looking into" a solution.
I'd like to say that at least the HoneyDanBer UUCP works, but it came
with a broken uusched which crashes with either a memory fault or
segmentation violation.
So, if anyone is contemplating an upgrade for a Microchannel machine
to Xenix version 2.3.2, I would suggest waiting until the bugs are out.
