Has anyone ever come across any VME graphics cards? I have an Atari Mega STE with an unused VME slot, and would love to have some higher resolution output for that machine than what the stock ST chips provide.. Just figure I'd ask..
The Atari VME slot is a single connector I'd guess, given the size of the machine. There were frames to put SGI desktop video boards in the larger deskside and full rack SGIs via the VME slot side... but they were usually 2 connectors I think, and the video card set (ELAN from Indigo?) wouldn't fit. Plus you'd have to write all the software to make it work. No idea if there were VME accessories ever produced for the Atari ST computers. Probably would be easier to go VME to PCI and use a WinTel graphics card after writing software to drive it. (I actually have a TT030 and I think it has a VME slot as well, but it's empty.)
