Does anyone successfully run 81/2 on Orchid Fahrenheit 1280Plus?
I'm having trouble making it undersand any mode above 800x600x1.
It kinda work in 800x600x8, at least hsync and vsync are there, but
the picture looks like the three beams are out of focus. In 1024x768x[18]
the clock is completely wrong---the monitor does not recognize hsync at all.

It seems that ...Plus is sufficiently different from the vanila 1280:
the ramdac is att20c490-80 instead of sc15025-80. I tried changing the entry
in /lib/vgadb, but it does not help.

Thanks,
