Subject: Libretto 100/110 at 1024x600?
Hi!
Has anybody been able to hack the drivers or something on your librettos
so that you were able to set the resolution 1024x600?
I have only managed to set the resolution to 1024x768 (yes, on the
libretto's own screen).
Anybody know of a way?
IIRC the NeoMagic 2160 video adapter simply doesn't support that mode
(in an easy way, that is).
Long time ago, while writing Fortran callable graphics routines in
assembler, I played with some SuperVGA routines which assisted in
uncovering all supported graphics modes on video adapters. I can't
remember to have seen any other non-standard graphics resolutions than
800x480 on my Lib110; apart from many seldomly used text modes.
If you want, one of these days I can try to dig up a few of those routines.
Then again, the NeoMagic is VESA2.0 compliant and has a lot of
capabilities, more -and perhaps even much more- than the native Windows
driver allows.
I strongly suspect that it must be possible under Linux fairly easily,
and if X.org or XFree86 can, some advanced Windows driver might allow
it, too.
SNAP perhaps? (www.scitechsoft.com)
