Here some explanations of some demo init string values

Init=„bb0501b8024fcd10“
  bb 0501  BL = 05, BH = 01  (VESA Modus 105H = 1024 x768 x 8)
  b8 024f   AL = 02, AH = 4F  (activate VESA mode)
  cd 10      INT 10H

Init=„b81200cd10bb003fb80110cd10“
  b8 1200  AL = 12, AH = 00 (set 640 x 480 x 4)
  cd 10      INT 10H
  bb 003f   BL = 00, BH = 3F (color 3FH)
  b8 0110  AL = 01, AH = 10 (set border color)
  cd 10      INT 10H

Subject: [Oberon] Help: Display Init Strings for Native Oberon

Does anybody remember how to create display Init Strings for Native
Oberon?

Background: I recently dumped my old CRT and replaced it with a TFT, my
old
NO installation switches the S3 Trio display via an Init string to 90 Hz
refresh
Rate, which the TFT does not understand.

Although I remember, how to set the boot variables temprarily (see also:
http://www.ethoberon.ethz.ch/native/WebConfig.html) I do not remember
how to create these crude Init strings.

regards
