Denny –
Ok the new monitor is great, but I need a little help.
I don't usually boot my machine to often, so once I set the screen mode
to the new A2024 everything looks great (except for AP – but that's
something I can live with, and something for my next thread ), anyway I
can't seem to get the monitor mode recongized when I reboot the CPU.
I have done the following in order to get the screen mode to stick,
please, what am I missing here!
I have moved the 2024 monitor icon from 'Monitor Store' to the monitor
draw. This draw is in the rood of my Workbench disk (SYS:). I have also
played alittle with 'Add Monitor' – in the icon, I defined the Num=4
Name=A2024. This 'Add Monitor' is in my System draw (SYS:system). 'Bind
Monitor is also there and knows about the A2024. Ok, there was a while
there when 'screen mode' did not know about the A2024 when I brought that
up, and I have fixed that now. (I think the 'Add monitor' fixed that).
So what am I doing wrong here, or what have I overlooked.
BTW, I'm running WB 2.04 so I assumed that my 'monitor' draw does not
yet belong in my 'devs' draw, as it would when one upgrades to 2.1.
Anyway I have tryed putting that draw into Devs: and that made no
difference. I have notice the following lines in my 'Start-Up Sequence';
"if exists sys:Monitors
join >NIL: sys:monitors/~(#?.info) as t:mon-start
execute t:mon-start"
Well, like I said 'sys:Monitor' does exist in my SYS: and within that draw
does exist the A2024.info. So I'm at a loss. Does anyone know what the
deal is here.
Thanks
