#New Monitor drivers???
9 messages in this thread
Is anyone having trouble getting the upgraded monitor drivers from their
local dealer that commodore has come out with for WB 3.0? I have had an
order placed with the dealer I bought my A1200 from for almost a month and
all they tell me is that they are back ordered and they don't know when
they will be coming in.

Yes! No one I talk to (dealer AND C= Express) seems to know for sure what
I'm talking about, and I REALLY need them. If anything turns up, please
tell me.
Btw – do you have a part number on the update disk?

Richard,
I suspect you won't see the new monitor drivers until C= releases AmigaOS
3.1. Right now only developers have them.

Do you have any idea what the new drivers are supposed to do,
particularly, and when OS 3.1 might be expected?
Waiting with baited breath,

Paul,
The newer monitor drivers give you much better control over screen
postitioning and amount of overscan. No more fiddling with monitor
controls when switching screen modes.
As to when 3.1 might be expected…can't say.

Sounds excellent. Does it add more overscan than attainable w/ the
current drivers, though?

Paul,

Ummm…most likely! 8^) (Depends to an extent on the particular screen
mode.)

Noone around here knows about the drivers… I wish C= would distribute
them through CIS or some other service.
