Any experts out there for configuring a Blizzard Vision graphics card?
I'm trying to help out someone who has bought a 2nd hand BVision and BlizzardPPC card for their towered A1200.
I have the BlizzardPPC + SCSI working fine with the lastest version of
WarpOS from H&P and the
PowerUp emulation libs, but I can't get the BVision card working properly.
Having only used P96 before, I'm a bit in the dark.
As per various instructions, the Blizzard now has the latest firmware from
http://phase5.a1k.orgI've installed CyberGraphX ver 4.0 and applied the 4.1 update from Aminet, required for the BVision.
The monitor is a C= 1942, so I've set up the BVPPC monitor settings for 1940 listed on Aminet.
What currently works with the BVision:
- AGA video passthrough works before Devs:Monitors are executed
- ShowGFXconfig detects the BVisionPPC board
The problems are:
- There is no boot image when Devs:Monitors are executed (I presume there is supposed to be with the tooltype set?)
- The video modes configured using CGXmode don't show up in the WB Screenmode prefs (they're not flagged as hidden)
- Using CGXmode and selecting "test" on any existing screenmode always gives the error "Can't open test screen!"
Do I have a faulty BVision or is it likely to be a CGFX setup issue?
I've spent ages trying different tooltypes, etc, but always the same result.
Is there a comprehensive guide of "here's what versions you need of everything to make the BVision work" type of thing?
Any help/suggestions appreciated.
