Message-ID: <2431@netmbx.UUCP> Date: 23 Mar 89 00:57:17 GMT Reply-To: blume@netmbx.UUCP (Heiko Blume) Organization: netmbx Public Access Unix, Berlin, West Germany Lines: 15 since there are *many* hercules graphics cards in use i wonder why they are not supported by sco CGI and other prgms. what is 'device independant' in this context, and has anyone worked on this ? shouldnt be too difficult to make drivers especially if this ansi computer graphics device virtual interface is what i expect. another interesting thing are the text modes offered by vga cards, i.e. 132 chars by 46(48 ?) lines. how can these be used with xenix ? any help/info appreciated. -- Heiko Blume,Seekorso 29,D-1000 Berlin 22,VOICE=(+49 30)365 55 71,BBS=()365 75 01 TELEX=183003 intro d,FAX=()882 50 65|ARPA =crash!pnet01!pro-cess!blume@nosc.mil PSI =PSI%45300043109::netmbx:blume |BITNET=pro-cess.UUCP!blume@PSUVAX1 UUCP =blume@netmbx.UUCP |INET =blume@pro-cess.cts.com
