GFX cards
« on: January 16, 2003, 02:53:24 AM »
Hi ...
 Here's where I really show my ignorance.
 I have Blitz 2.1 and downloaded the upgrades fron
 Aminet. Now I have a Retina Z11 gfx card that is
 not supported under picasso 96.
 I would like to program a driver for RTG for this
 card. I played some with basic on my old C64.
 I know this could be a daunting job for someone
 as uneducated as myself, but I'd like to try.
 If someone could give me some kind of outline--
 I mean --WHERE DO I START????
 I have all the Rom Kernal books and numeris
 other programing books I bought for my son
 before he seen the "INTEL" light.
 I know I should start with something easer,
 but I have a need for the driver and I would
 rather struggle that than some meaningless
 little util.
 So any help here would be greatly appreciated.

OK.... :-)
  Like I said in the begining :-) I'm showing my
 lack of knowledge.
 I have SAS-C also, a gift from a friend of my son.
 He also went over to the "BOX" , he is a very good
 programer( make his living that way working some
 company or other). Anyway he gave me his SAS-C
 and all his books but I though I would start with a
 language that is a little more familiar.
  I'm guess I'm like the old saying goes
 " All these books and I CAN'T read alick".
  So --- I'll check this stuff out.
  Thanks much, I'm not proud. I except help from
  where-ever I can get it. :-)  :-?
