- Hello all,
- I have the above mentioned VESA kit. Be prepared to know PASCAL. I
- found a public domain pas to c convertor that helps but does'nt do it all. I
- asked for a "C" kit when I ordered it. The kit comes with old VESA drivers
- from some vendors (early91) and some early demo programs.
- I have a technical question. I have the STB Evolution VESA compliant
- card and am having a VERY difficult time getting the modes 0x101h, 0x103h,
- 0x104h, 0x105h or in other words, any 256colour mode. It appears to be a
- problem with VESA function 0x4F05 (SetVesaBank()). Anyone programming VESA
- modes want to share their experiance?
