but that is still driven by the EDID monitor information being correctly recognized by the driver and thus telling it what the screen capability it.TTBOMK you can bypass all this DDC stuff in SNAP when choosing 'Unknown monitor'.
As you know max. for single link DVI is 1920x1200 / 60Hz. And there is no OS/2 driver which supports DVI dual link. So for today no chance to get more than 1920x1200 (one display) on digital interfaces with OS/2.
Of course you can try the analog output. In theory this is not limited to the above numbers. But I fear the result will be not very good. Given the cheap converters and cables and the two times A/D conversion it probably will look ugly. Even if a monitor will handle higher resolutions on Sub-D (VGA) connector the image will be not very good compared to the digital transmitted one. Nearly no one uses analog interface these days. So do not expect good analog support at high resolutions. Even 1920x1200 / 60Hz is rather high for analog interface these days. It looks worse than via DVI. Useable, but not good enough for me.
