Waterloo, Ontario. Lines: 21 In an earlier posting I mentioned that we are considering putting a Bell Technologies BLIT processor in a Xenix/386 machine. I should have mentioned that because the drivers may not be available, we would like to use a VGA instead. The VGA's performance is adequate for our first models. The only thing we really need is 256 grey levels on a 640x480 screen. If this can be done with a psuedo VGA card, then we would use that. Does Xenix 386 support the VGA? What kind of support does it provide? Will I be able to issue realatively high level commands to a driver, or will I have to do low level bit banging to get the job done? larry -- Larry Williamson Focus Automation Systems UUCP: watmath!focsys!larry 608 Weber St. N, Waterloo, Ontario N2V 1K4 +1 519 746 4918
