Yes, thanks, now I remember, it was interpolated indeed, and worked with nice speed (games and such). So this means I'll just have to live with 1024x768 only, unless sb writes a driver that could do it? And another question - did you manage to run the tv output on your pismos? And does anyone of you use the default 6gb hdd? I find it quite slow - it runs on udma 4 mode, but is really slow. Tell me how long does it take you to launch firefox? I got 192 mb ram.
