Short: DBLPAL:825x564 monitor driver for AGA Author: martinsemail@home.se (Martin Eriksson) Uploader: martinsemail home se (Martin Eriksson) Type: driver/moni Version: 1.0 Architecture: m68k-amigaos REQUIREMENTS: - The MIPrefs-program from aminet/util/misc/MonSpecsMUI.lha - DBLPal-monitor-driver from AmigaOS3.1 (OS3.9 works also) DESCRIPTION: For some years I've been using DBLPAL Highres No Flicker 720x564 thanx to some hacks I found on Aminet. I thought this was the absolute maximum. But recently I happend to chat with a dude on a Swedish Amiga IRC-channel. He said that he'd got 738x566 with help of a program named 'PatchOverscan', also found on Aminet. I tried that, but I didn't succeed to get that view. It made it possible 2 change the overscan limits of NOMINAL MAXIMUM and VIDEO to whatever values. I donno, I maybe did something wrong :P Anyway, then I found a program named 'MonSpecsMUI' also on Aminet, similar to MonED, that gives access to monitorsettings and also overscanlimits and much more. I increased the overscanlimits so I could later increase text-overscan in SYS:Prefs/Overscan further. I used 'Save and quit'-button in the MonSpecsMUI- program. I put this two lines somewhere after IPrefs in my S:Startup-Sequence SYS:Prefs/Overscan USE MIPrefs Then I executed SYS:Prefs/Overscan and maximized the text-overscan to the limits I sat earlier with the MonSpecsMUI-program. Then I saved the new Overscan prefs and Rebooted. After that I got a 825x564 Workbench Screen Perhaps it's possible 2 stretch it some more. I don't know :) It works fine for me but and I should work for you but... I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMEGES CAUSED BY THIS SOFTWARE OR BY THE INFORMATION AND INSTRUCTIONS! INSTALLATION: Copy all the files in DblPal_ME/ to your Sys: respective directories and keep the VGAOnly and VGAOnly.info in your Sys:Devs/Monitors/ Maybe it works, but I havn't test without it. Copy the file 'MIPrefs' to C: from the 'MonSpecsMUI.lha'-archive that can be found on Aminet. Make a backup of your old files before if you think you'll need them in the future. Copy them to a any place you prefer. Put this lines in your S:Startup-Sequence somewhere after IPrefs SYS:Prefs/Overscan USE MIPrefs The MIPrefs-program comes from 'MonSpecsMUI.lha' on Aminet. It's not included in this archive so you have to download it yourselfe. It's needed! Then just reboot. If it's not working for any strange reason, please read the manuals of MonSpecsMUI and MIPrefs. Good luck! ABOUT MY MACHINE: Amiga1200 with Blizzard 1260 and a 20" PHILIPS SVGA monitor. Kickstart 3.1 OS3.9 (it should work with OS3.1 as well, but I have not checked)
