yes, i saw that changelog entry. How about mentioning that it requires a
"-mode xres yres" to do it in the docs? ;)
as for my problems, i found that for some reason heretic seemed to be
grabbing the 320x240 differntly then when speced with the 320x240. It seems
to flicker in "menu mode" when not refreshing at 214Hz. Strange...
As for my problems, it seems that i had a screwed up motherboard. It would
die when certain monochrome cards were mixed with vga cards, and would just
not work with other monochrome cards.
I have switched to a new computer in which the motherboard is screwed up in
a differnt way, and while the video works, the kernel & ggi no longer
compile :/
