Re: Vesa driver and screen size

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



You need to increase your resolution: on an lcd screen a resolution smaller then the "official"
resolution of the screen will either be smaller (use only the pixel it needs and leave the other
alone) or give an ugly picture (extrapolate the picture to fit the screen resolution) unless you
have one of these mega screen with very high resolution and a clever driver which I don't believe
vesa is since it must work as an "universal" driver...
I am assuming the first time was during configuration and you got the standard 480x640 vga over
the whole screen...
