Monitor switcher: SwitchControl with experimental DPMS-support
SwitchControl is used to control different self-made monitor-switcher. In this way graphic boards without a monitor-switcher (BVision, PCI-graphic boards) can be used together with an Amiga monitor.
In the experimental version 1.1d of SwitchControl the DPMS-support was added: SwitchControl set the AGA-output to "suspend" and waits a few seconds before it switches to the graphic board. In this way perhaps some sync-problems can be fixed which may occur in the combination of Micovitec M1764, 15khz and graphic board.
