SCO OpenDesktop, on an Everex 386/25, with a Wyse 7190 HR display This display is compatible with Wyse 700 or hercules HGA. The best resolution should be 1280 x 1024, but the best I get with the drivers supplied is 720x350, wich looks terrible. Now, all this is controlled by files in the /usr/lib/grafinfo, were there are subdirectories for different manufacturers. Under the Hercules directory, there is a file "mono.xgi". This file contains Info copyright by Metagraphics Software Corp. I am cross posting this to X, because the software being initialized is Xsight. It uses this line : hercules.mono.hga.720x350-2 to initialize the display. I copied the mono.xgi, and changed the number of x/y pixels, but all I get is it wraps, since I am sending the right number of pixels but the card still thinks is running on the wrong resolution. 1) Is one of the other drivers compatible with my Wyse display/card. I have tried several but they lock up the machine and I have to re-boot every time. 2) Is there a way to write a wyse.xgi file? Is this documented somewhere? What kind of info goes in there? Given the hercules HGA does display, what should I change to make it go to a higher resolution? Thanks for any/all info. Post or e-mail, I'll keep an eye. If I get important info via e-mail, I'll post it for the benefit of the NET. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Internet: sergio@squid.rtech.com Sergio L.
