display of Toshiba Satellite 205CDS.
Aubrey, am> At the command line, run "debug" Is that in DOS or Aos? I learned to use objdump in Debian and was able to duplicate your output. Thanks! Folk, Config.DetectVesa reports that mode 00000105H will work on the Toshiba 205CDS. With the machine lacking a floppy drive, the mode can not be set by Config.Vesa in Oberon0 but the config strings can be set in rebooting. Display=Displays. DDriver=DisplayLinear DMode=00000105H Init= DWidth= DHeight= DDepth= [Mode 105H implies width=1024, height=768, depth=8.] I've made a poor photo of the resulting display. Desktops.OpenDoc http://carnot.yi.org/T205CDS.jpg The system track is about half the width it should be, although the text appears OK. The appearance is the same if I use mode 117H [width=1024, height=768, depth=16]. Before I plod further, does anyone recognize why the track or display is shifted or the display is scaled? Andre, judging by www.oberon.ethz.ch/display.html, earlier releases configured VESA by Init, DWidth, & etc. whereas in Native 05.01.2003 the configuration is simplified by using the DMode string. So I wonder whether some comments about this can be added to display.html. A comment about DDriver would also be helpful. Thanks, ... Peter E. -- http://carnot.yi.org/
