[geeks] Oops :)

Ahh, 24 bit graphics, but s-l-o-w-l-y? I've got a TGX I pulled from the system - I'll try that instead. Would switching framebuffer to a TGX make a significant difference in Netscape 4.X on this box? (I imagine it would, but want to make sure my expectations are reasonable...)

I suppose I would simply touch /reconfigure and reboot, right? I installed the complete distribution of Solaris 7, so I should have the drivers already in place...

Thanks!

Ken

Thats why.  AFX.  *slow*.
