#1 I struggle with my IndivisionECS.
- I empty the dev:monitor/ folder and the computer boots up with colors and working quite nice. in low resolution though.
- The problem occurs when i change ANY screenmode settings. The main WB screen goes into black and white. other screens show colors. dopus i in full color mode, if 16 colors are selected.
- But no matter what other screenmodes i change to, WB screen goes black'n white.
- HighGFX mode does not seem to do any changes. putting the screenmote in monitors does nothing. no new screenmodes to select. and the only file present in the "devs:monitors/" is the highGFX screenmde files.
- Should i put other files there or make any entries to the startup-sequnce?
#2 I struggle getting my buddha finding CF cards. i have an old 500MB HDD that works...... Well... it works....
- I try adding cf adapter to the same cable, changing between M/S. putting the disk and the cf on separate channels, no identifying. all though when HDToolbox scans the controller the cf adapter blinks when it scans unit 5 in the scsi chain.
- Oh. and putting the icon tooltype to "buddha_atapi.device" the HDD does not show up. By just using "ASKDEVICE" in icon tooltype the HDD shows up and i can partition and format it without problems...:eek:
- i use a SanDisk ultra 4GB CF card, and i have multiple adapters. and no avail... no results. though, i can addres it in uae, even partirion and format it. but it does not show up in the A500.... No automount... nothing...
In reference to #1 I suggest trying a different power supply. The Indivision ECS is picky about clean power. On my A500+ I switched from a Obese Boy power supply (not very politically correct name) to a modded XT power supply. It was like magic the Indivision started working without a problem.
I got the old Oscope out and looked at the Obese Boy supply, the 5 volt line was a bit noisy particularly when the floppy drive it being accessed. Before the power supply switch I had all likes of issues with the Indivision. It would everything from drop signal to have tearing screen issues.
