Picasso96 or Cybergraphx?

[Mauro73]

Can the two coexist?

Is there a way to uninstall one of them, cybergraphx for example?

My purpose is to try both the systems (picasso96 and cybergraphx) and see which is the best.

depends on the rtg card in question... I personally prefer CGX4 , but in cases like busboards or the picassoIV you don't really have a choise...

I have a desktop A4000 with a CyberVision 64 card.

stay with P96 then (the better choise for CV64)

Thanks a lot for the advice  :-)

[Mauro73]

is there a reason for my fast ram size decrease a lot when I select a cybervision screen mode (under P96)?

And is there a way to avoid this?

Thank you


P.S. I don't remember very well but it seems that with cybergraphx this didn't happen.

what??!!!??? p96 for cv64? no way! CGX4 is better for that!

I've tried P96 yesterday and it was really a straight forward way to change screen resolution and find hardware limitations in a snap.

May you tell me why do you think CGX4 is better?

And by the way, may you tell me a link where I can download CGX4?

Thank you very much in advance

Ok, so it's most of all a personal taste matter, isn't it?

Anyway, I'll try CGX4 too, just to have a better idea of what are the posibilities  :-)

For personal taste: I like P96 better but as said before it also depends on what RTG card you're using.

I'm using a Phase 5 CyberVision 64  :-)

...and anyone can explain why P96 eats so much memory?

With cgx my ram (both fast and chip) is the same amount as before the installation.

With P96 I've got less chip ram and almost half the fast ram.

I'm sure that I've done something wrong during the installation, maybe clicked ok when the software asked me if copy something into the ram at the startup... I don't know.

as usual, thank you very much in advance
