We're looking for a little advice on which graphics adapter to use with Xsight. We're running SCO Unix system V 3.2.0. We'd like 1024x768 with 256 colors. Does such a beast exist that *works* with Xsight? Specifically, has anyone used either the Orchid ProDesigner II or the Trident 8916? Thanks Mark -- Mark W.

I have used Video Seven 1024i with Open Desktop (Unix 3.2.2 bundled with X-
Windows) for a while I used the 1024 X 768 driver, but swithced back to 800
X 640 because it was a bit flockery on a NEC 3-D Multisinc monitor. It
seemsthat at that resolution you need to get non-interlacedwhich reduces
the flicker. Everything was also very tiny. But, I have to admit the images
were crisp.

The 256 color server is not out yet. But both of these cards are supported in high res 16 color mode in ODT (aka 3.2.1). The Trident grafinfo file may not be on the distrubution but you can probibly get it from support. -- Brian Chapman uunet!sco!chapman Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!
