-
- 1 Could not access mode because uses a mode number different from VESA
- standard mode number.
-
- 2 Mode unavailable (presumably memory shortage/wrong monitor type).
-
- 3 Machine crashed when installing univbe.
-
- 4 Colors on the display were incorrect - unusable.
-
- 5 Crashed machine.
-
- 6 Glitch could occur depending on the mouse position. Consists of a
- small block on the right hand side of the screen. Screen updates must
- be the whole screen, mouse can only be in certain positions.
-
- 7 Used with Matrox's own VESA driver - UNIVBE does not function
- correctly.
-
- 8 UniVBE crashed on installation. The vesa Window A is write only - so
- the cursors background is incorrect. Can cause screen corruption on areas
- where RenderWare is not updating the screen.
