I have a Trident 9525CyberDVD Graphics card and the vesa_test program
detects it and i can show a maximum resolution of 1024x768 in 16bit color.

How do i make Photon use this as its quite boring running it in 640x480
4bit.???

I dont need the accelration just the realestate

Regards
Chris

Right click on a blank area of the desktop and select the Graphics Config
option.

Right click on a blank area of the desktop and select the Graphics Config
option.

I already done that but the Vesadriver isnt on the list.
only the std vga driver.

The vesabios driver requires VESA 2.00 or better. Wait for
the next patch, which will contain an svga driver which handles
pre-vesa 2.00 drivers, and should probably do the trick.
