SunPCi User's Guide

External Monitor Resolutions

Table A–5 shows the external VGA display resolutions that SunPCi supports. For best results, you may want to increase the amount of available video RAM from 1 Mbyte (the default) to 4Mbytes and reset the VGA memory clock to 70 MHz. For information on how to increase the video RAM, refer to .

Note –

Before you change the resolution or display depth of your monitor, be sure to shut down all running applications and save your work. You do not need to test a new setting before applying it.

Note –

Remember that increasing your video memory decreases the amount of available system memory.
