Have you tried turning off the recommended views in the "display" panel
in OSX ? This should give you more choices. I know there is a work
around and I think this is it...
The twin turbo is an older card made by ixmicro ands was stock with
Apple 9500 and 9600 and the UMAX J700/S900 machines. The iXmicro card
was newer and the last card made by them before they folded. There are
Apple Roms for both cards and I doubt the twin turbo Apple rom will
work in the iXmicro card. Jeff supplied both iXmicro and Twin turbo
Apple and iXmicro rom chips. It was a one time thing. However I believe
both roms work ok in OSX. I doubt trying the Apple rom chip would cause
any problems I'd expect it to just not work. Will S
