Can't get HighGfx working
Hi all,
I'm using an Indivision ECS for the very first time and I can't seem to get the HighGfx monitor driver working. I've got it in Devs:Monitors, but no associated screenmodes show up in Prefs/Screenmode or Prefs/Overscan. Indivision seems to have firmware 1.01, which I thought was the latest. The machine is an A2000 with Workbench 2.1. Does HighGfx require 3.1? Any other ideas? Thanks! |

Re: Can't get HighGfx working
Matt_H mate HighGFX requires 2.1 and above as it's readme declares so I guess if you're using 2.1+ you're good to go.
You putted both HighGFX and it's info file in Devs:Monitors? Also you can use Ratte's awesome SuperPlus Driver (800x600) after installing Indivision's latest beta core (both files exist on a thread over a1k.org). I made a quick review over my Blog which you can check here (it has the link to the thread as well) http://mfilos.blogspot.com/2012/01/a...n-setting.html

Re: Can't get HighGfx working
Do you have to update to Indivision's latest beta core to use the SuperPlus Driver (800x600)? If so what benefits or loss would there be using it?

Re: Can't get HighGfx working
So you think its safe enough then to flash with the beta then? Will that void the warranty?

Re: Can't get HighGfx working
Hi.
I have just installed an IndiECS in my A2000 in place of my old Amber card. Highgfx is fine. I have tried the beta Shapeshifter driver: it works stable but is extremly slow with my 060. Did you try this too? Is there any other software that takes advantage of the IndiECS?
