PicassoII
« on: July 03, 2006, 03:44:22 AM »
Hi all.

Just received a PicassoII today, to go in my A4000.

Now I didnt get a manual, the seller said the manual was in German so I gave that a miss, but I have a scandoubler in the 4000 and i plan to Passthrough the Scandoubler output INTO the picassoII, and then from the PicassoII out to the SVGA monitor.

Will the picasso output the scandoubled Native modes without the Picasso drivers being loaded ? Or do i need to physically load all the drivers from the Scandoubler output direct before the card is initialised ?

Hello There,

No you don't need to install any drivers for native Amiga video with your Flicker Ficker, just for the Picasso 2 card.Merv

Not flicker fixer, Scandoubler.

I needed to know if the Picasso II will PASS through the Scandoubled signal to the monitor, WITHOUT drivers.

Meaning will I get the default workbench (Super72) without drivers or will I get a blank screen ?

I am trying to figure out if I need to install the picasso drivers BEFORE swapping the Monitors cable to the Picasso card.

Sure it will (would be rather pointless otherwise).


And yes I'm speacking from personal experience.
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else
