you have nvidia video card working in your mediator? wow!

so you can browse with indivision, while you cant with the rtg. the rtg card in this case your nvidia provides buffer memory for pci dma, on which the network card usually relies. you should make sure this shared memory is at least 1 mb i guess. the settings for that as well as fast ram might be tooltypes in your monitor file. i dont remember and im away from my amiga to check.

ah and changing endiannes of display may (but not must) lead to a crashes since the dma buffer gets corrupted/overwritten. you may try to use the oposit endian mode, the tooltype to enable more mdes is something like showmode=essential>all. ah, perhaps these are not tooltypes but env varibles.

within mmupdate archive on elbox site i guess.

you have to set the number within the env variable file to amount of the memory that you want to dedicate to grapics. for instance you have
16mb rtg card
you want
15 mb of it to be used for graphics and
1 mb to be used for dma buffer
then you set the variable to 15.

if you have some fast ram variable that over imposes the amount of vram dedicated to particular usage this may lead to problems i imagine. i would disable the fast ram feature for the rime being. this ram gets almost never any use from my experience.
