Okay, I have Windows 3.1 installed on DOSBox .72 under Linux. I went through the driver tutorial and setup up the s3 drivers and set them to 1024x768 with 64k of colors. I also have tried several different combinations of resolution/colors. However, when I try to run Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego CD (which is built for 3.1/95), it installed perfectly, but when I try to run it it says "To run, this application requires SVGA at 640x480 resolution and 256 colors" (or words to that affect). It acts like it cannot tell that I changed the resolution. Is there a DOSBox setting I need to change, or is there a different driver that would work better?

Thanks in advance.

Nevermind, I just had to set it to exactly 640x480 256. Strange, I could have sworn I tried that already. Oh well, it works perfectly.
