[comp.unix.i386] Looking for a Big Screen

doug@feedme.UUCP (Doug Salot) (10/02/89)

I'd like to find an inexpensive usable X-windows display for my AT/386.
Something like a 19" analog grayscale monitor capable of supporting
1024x768 non-interlaced VGA would be fine.  I'm shooting for a target
price of <= $1000.

Prethanks,

Would you happen to know how xwindows works with EGA?

I had a chance of playing with an AT&T 386 running UNIX 3.2 with AT&T's
version of X11, and something called attwin, their window manager.
This system had an EGA display. It works. At least with the local
servers included with the system.  You can open a few xterm windows
without killing the machine (4MB 20MHz) Of course you cannot pretend
your are in front of the real thing, there aren't enough pixels.
