I'm using a Q40, previously with 3.01, now with 3.07 (no intermediate version), homebuilt (using Qmac). (Rom still in 2.98)
I have no trouble starting in 1024x512, once the file has been configurated with menuconfig.
well that's one out of 3 I guess - presume you also get the high colour mode (DISP_TYPE=33).
Nevertheless, I did tried to put the 3.01 on Eprom, but they never boot the Q40. So, there is probably an issue and something broken somewhere.
(And yes, I know how to program correctly the eprom, I had no trouble getting, modifiying and updating the 2.98 image... )
I have not yet tested 3.07 on eprom, but given that patch trace, I have barely any hope.
Yes, this is something else that apparently needs to be fixed. Any volunteers ??
Also (I have not checked this myself) but someone with SMSQ/e v3.03 for the Gold Card (high colour version) has said that their boot program which just has LRESPR win1_smsq_gold now cycles - in the past it would not try to re-load smsq/e on top of itself.
Well, my Q40 boot file starts with something along 100 IF VER$(1)=="2.98" THEN LRESPR ...
So at the second boot, there is no lrespr to do.
I know that work around, but it should not ne necessary.... Certainly standard Gold Card smsq/e just ignores the LRESPR and goes to the next line - but the high colour v3.03 doesn't.
