And with the speed of tridents, pushing molasses through a drinking straw might be faster. I played around with SVGATextMode. Tried my trident, an S3 Virge 375, a matrox Millenium, and an ATI Rage II based card. I'd try a nice new card, but this old pentium 120 doesn't have AGP. None of them can push a high enough pixel clock, to drive the monitor. > I use framebuffers on the console at 1864x1400 in 60 Hz, and (more > often) 1600x1200 at 60 Hz. I prefer to waste real screen estate on a > nice font though (Sun12x22). I think I'm going to hit my monitor limit, this is a 14", that runs ... well, walks, at 1024x768 on a good day. Even with a better monitor substituted(15" TTX 8570), I still can't get the pixel clock. Any bigger of a monitor defeats the purpose of this, which is to make my text even smaller. I suspect I should find a non-technological solution to people wandering in my office and reading my screen and bothering me while I'm trying to work.
