A stock TT's video is somewhat limited: 256 colors are
available only in 320x480 mode (TT low); 640x480 mode (TT medium) yields only 16 colors.
This limitation was fixed by adding Computerinsel's 2MB ATI Mach 64 graphics engine to the TT's VME
bus, outputting to an NEC MultiSync 2V monitor. The software driving the graphics engine
is a German rewrite of GEM's VDI routines found in ROM. TOS now runs in 800x600 with 1-,
8-, 16-, and 24-bit color. |
