Hi, ALL!
I start using dosbox not so long ago, so i have some lame questions šŸ˜€ about runnig IT with dosbox:

1) is there any way to make onboard memory on GUS more then 1024 kb?
2) how to set up video mode to make dosbox correctly show non-standard symbols in IT and graphs?

hey ho let's go

1)
yes, but only by editing source files (very simple to do, if you are able to compile dosbox).

2)I didn't see any weird symbols in IT.

The original gus could only have 1 mb of memory

1) huh, it works only if value is decreased šŸ™
(but I think that increasing to >1 megs worked before and IT detected it - but I'm not sure about that)

2)This happens in 0.61. It's fixed in CVS, and will be in 0.62.

Hmm might have worked in IT since it can also work with gus pnp, but either way i changed the fixed point variables to have more precision and then you'll loose the high bits for acessing the extra memory.
