LCDInfo 0.3.2
Win2k pro SP3
LCD output disabled for the moment

I create a screen with truetype font objects in it, and they do not show up on the virtual display.

I figured it may be related to the LCD being disabled, does it work on the virtual if you disable the LCD output?

Now that I think of this it might be that the truetype font support isn't even implemented in the "LCD output disabled" mode. :oops:

Just use the KS0108 setting instead and it should work fine. With the KS0108 setting it writes to the parallel port though but this shouldn't be a problem ?

:D Yay!

I had tried the Toshiba setting and it threw major errors, so I was too chicken to try the other one...
