I need help setting up dual screens on my system. My config is a 386DX
running SCO Xenix System V 2.3.1 and DOS 4.0.1. I have an ATI VGA
Wonder+ card with 512K and a DTI Hercules (w/CGA Emulation) compatible
monochrome card.
Both the Hercules and the VGA cards work fine in DOS. Ie, I can do a
"MODE MONO" command and display on the Herc screen and then switch
back using "MODE CO80". When I boot to Xenix, only the VGA monitor is
found during the boot probe. This is all hwconfig finds with both cards
installed:
name=console vec=- dma=- unit=vga type=0
Here's what I get when I remove the ATI VGA card:
name=console vec=- dma=- unit=mono type=2
I'm told I should expect something like this on a VGA system with a
standard (non-Hercules) card: (Note that type=0, not 2.)
name=console vec=- dma=- unit=vga type=0
name=console vec=- dma=- unit=mono type=0
I sure would like to get both screens going and would be very
grateful to anyone who can help.
Please e-mail responses.
Doug
