Hi all,

At the TI user group meeting in Birkenau (Germany) last weekend it was brought to my attention that  viewing files in 80 column mode doesn't work correctly when using a device with a 9938/9958 video processor like Geneve or 80 column card.

This happened because in Dm2k and Cf2k I only set mode bit M2 of VDP register R0, but on a real 9938/9958 the two least significant bits of th pattern name table (VDP register R2) MUST be set to work correctly. The F18A board ignores this setting.

This is fixed in Dm2k version 2.6 and Cf2k version 2.4. and can be downloaded here http://www.ti99-geek.nl/ http://www.ti99-geek.nl/   

 Previous version of Dm2k (v2.5) and Cf2k (v2.2 or 2.3) works fine with a 9918/9929 or F18A VDP board. 

Fred ;-)
