I found something odd and am looking for a solution.
When I install the Cybervision drivers with os 3.9 and reboot they won't show up under preferences unless I shut the computer completely down and then power it up? Kind of weird that a reset wouldn't do the same thing.
Anyone else ever heard of this?

From a previous topic; posted by Piru:
As pointed out before by AMIGAZ, if you're using AOS 3.9 and CGX3 you need the magic patcher by me.
exec44beta.lha (http://www.iki.fi/sintonen/sw/exec44beta4.lha) - exec44/cgx44fixer inside the archive.
o Some software explicitly check for V40 and think V44 is *older* than
V40. Luckily such broken software is very rare. These programs include
CyberGraphX software (only upto cgxv42_r2_pre8). Here is how you can fix
it:
> cd libs:
> copy clone cgxsystem.library cgxsystem.library.backup
> cgx44fixer cgxsystem.library
cgx44fixer by Harry "Piru" Sintonen
patch 0: offset: 0x0243E0
patch 1: offset: 0x025C86
cgxsystem.library patched succesfully.
(Note: offsets vary with different cgxsystem.library versions!)
If there should be any problems with the patched cgxsystem.library just
restore the backup. Without this patch the displayinfo database is
wrong and you can't see any CGFX modes in screenmode requesters.
UPDATE: The latest pre-release of CGX V4.2 (cgxv42_r2_pre11) finally
fixes this problem, and thus you no longer need this patch. Hooray! :-)
