Re: [SM] Trying to Catch up on 9.1, Revisited

[Paul Corsa]

If your Trinitron monitor comes with a standard PC  video plug that may 
be the issue. When I connected my new 19" Lacie using the PC video 
connector it worked, but I kept getting an "out of synch" message that 
would black out the screen. When I connected it via an adapter to the 
MAC Video port everything ran fine. The out of synch message happened on 
my Twin Turbo 4mb 128 card. I now run through an ATI Radon 7000 using 
the Mac adaptor and all is well.Paul C

Dennis suggested that I forget about custom drivers as 9.1 OS itself has a
Twin Turbo driver and it worked like a charm... except, it
works only on a cold start.  When I want to restart the S900 without
shutting down first, the driver doesn't activate and I'm stuck with the low
res only.
Another weird thing.  Dennis had suggested I make sure the 9.1 System
Monitors PlugIn Extension is active.  It appears in the extensions folder
but is NOT listed on the extensions manager.  Anybody have a suggestion?  (I
tried emailing Dennis off list, but couldn't make contact)
Say, anyone have a G3 card they're not using and want to see have a great
home?  Thanks again, list!!

Finally upgraded from OS 8.1 to 9.1 on a S900 with Twin Turbo-128 M2 and
Trinitron Multiscan 100ES.  Went smoothly, except for the display.  While
all was well on 8.1, now the Twin Turbo seems to kick in on only one out of
three or four starts.  Most of the time, the only res/refresh choice is
640X480, 67Hz, which doesn't fill the screen. I tried finding a driver
update from the 4.0 version I have and couldn't find any online.  I also
tried turning off a few 9.1 display extensions to see if there were a
startup conflict.  No luck there either.
If anyone can remember back to the time you went to 9.1, I would greatly
appreciate any suggestions.  Pulling out my hair.  Many thanks, Cal
