I've got
two LXen. The LX has a cgsix on the motherboard, and if
you "cd" to it and do "words" you'll see - or at least I do for
each
of mine - that it has resolution-changing words supporting, among
others, 1280x1024.
Except that many pixels won't fit in 1 MB of VRAM (not with
an 8-bit
pixel depth anyway). You'll need the optional VSIMM to actually run
at that resolution. I'll bet a shiny penny that installing one cures
your LX crashing.
(No bet, friend. :) So that's what that socket is for! I suppose I
was too optimistic assuming that the framebuffer wouldn't advertise a
resolution it isn't prepared to handle. (I should have known better
from the way a 4M cg14 acts on the SS20...though that
doesn't wedge; it
just multi-displays the video RAM.)
I'll have to ring up MemoryX and get myself one. Or perhaps two, one
for each LX, to save shipping.
