I patched System Disk with ResEdit, following the directions. I only
installed the video patch. No luck.
Monroe Williams indicates his video "comes up at 60 Hz every time" in
his e-mail response to Michael Wolfson regarding the System Disk patch,
listed in the System Disk tutorial. My video under OF comes up at 67 Hz
when set to /chaos/control. Is this correct?
As indicated earlier, kbd works. I get a white screen, just no
character output.
I tried changing the delay from 2 ms to 5, 10, and 100 ms, but no luck.
I presume this was the right variable.
I also tried deleting the Apple patches in System Disk, but no luck either.
