Dumb-Dumb: DosBox settings for Uconsole fullscreen?

uConsole
1

I tried everything in .cfg:

fullscreen = true
fulldouble= true/false

fullscreenresolution= desktop/ 1280x720/ 1280/600 etc etc
output= opengl

i get 2 problems:
-on full resolution Z:\ is below display bottom, only at x600 vertical is visible. not a problem
-on all fullscreen resolutions the top third of the screen sits unused.

please help, i need to type crap on MS-DOS to look cool commuting to work

I don’t have that problem. Here’s what my .cfg file shows:

fullscreen=true
fulldouble=false
fullresolution=original
windowresolution=original
output=surface
autolock=true
sensitivity=100
waitonerror=true
priority=higher,normal
mapperfile=mapper-0.74-3.map
usescancodes=false

i jsut realised Z:\ is waaaay below the bottom. about 6 lines. basically the whole msdos screen is moved down by a third on full screen. maybe because display is rotated by default? i dont get why other ppl dont have this issue

those settings are the default ones, and they make msdos only use the bottom quarter of my uconsole display, while dosbox is full screen

i works flawlessly on external displays with default configs.
on uconsole display the msdos working area is dragged half way down the bottom of the screen. it must be something to do with the way the display is rotated

try to switch between x11/wayland via raspi-config

I don’t know what to tell you because it works fine for me.

The only other display setting I have in the .conf are:

[dosbox]
machine=svga_s3
[render]
frameskip=0
aspect=false
scaler=normal2x

DOSBox opens in full screen mode. Everything’s on the screen. It scrolls correctly (i.e. when it hits the bottom of the screen, it displays and scrolls up).
