Meanwhile, I tried the command on a spare box and. yes, it worked except
the system froze.

I should have said I'm on Hardy 8.02. I have read up on it but am not

Of course, my preference would be for a display card/adapter to do the
work so the whole computer was permanently like that? Is there a
hardware way?
