1796.0. "Portability demo on VS3520\" by HGOVC::ALECLEE () Mon Nov 27 1989 22:14

    Hi,
    
    I have been using the Swimmer and the Portability demos on the VS3100
    machine and they seem to work fine. Now, I use the same demos on the
    VS3520 machine. The Swimmer demo is okay but the portability demo does
    not work. The windows appear on the screen but nothing comes out. I try
    to re-complie the source programs and re-link with the librarries but
    that does not work either. Can anybody help?
    
    Sorry for not looking through the note file for I am pressing for time.
    
    Thank you and best regards,
    
    Alec

I believe, (if I can remember the source), this is due to the fact that
the portability demo assumes the default visual is pseudo, therefore it
sets itself up so. The VS3520/3540's default visual is true color. The 
portability demo, last time I saw it, didn't handle tru color systems.
