Re Pismo video out

[lburkhdl]

Further to my original query: I've tried a 1280x1024 NEC 19" LCD 
display at 75mhz. There's no black border. There is some fuzziness. I 
can't tell whether I should attribute this to the Pismo video out or to 
the NEC display.
Thanks,
Leslie Burkholder

The Pismo powerbook specs say that the video out is VGA at a maximum of
1024x960. What happens if I run eg a 1600x1200dpi monitor off the video
out? Is there any predictable behavior?

When I've attempted to do this, the predictable outcome was that the
visible display shrunk down so that there was a huge black box outside
the desktop. The only way I've found to keep the desktop at full screen
is at 1024 x 768, but maybe that has to do with the monitor as well.
This was a 21 inch Dell I was trying to hook it up to.

But, if you reduce the number of colors, aren't you able to display at 
an
higher resolution?

You get a big black border

Uh, I don't think you will get a black border... however, the highest
you will be able to go on the monitor is 1024x768, despite the fact
that the monitor can go higher. And to clarify, screen resolution is
described in pixels, rather than dots per inch.
