Hi pf's,

Simple question about RE2 boards:

Can I drive 1 single 640x480 at 60 Hz display on a RE2 board?
I looked in the /usr/gfx/ucode/RE/dg2/vof directory and actually found a
640x480_60.u file but when I tried it:

% /usr/gfx/setmon -x 640x480_60
% /usr/gfx/stopgfx
% /usr/gfx/stargfx

the X display manager never came back (the screen remained black on the
console).
I can drive a single 1280x1024 at 60 Hz but not 640x480!!!???

I have an MCO connected to the RE2 board, and we usually use a 2++at++640x480_60
configuration. We have plans to buy another RE2 and we want to know if it is
possible to drive a single 640x480 view on each pipe (without MCO)

I think I am missing something...

Thank you.
