Hi netters
I'd like to get some information on how to get SVGA screen modes.
I have tried to use 0x4F02, int 10, but it doesn't seem to work.
I have also noticed that you can get information about the supported modes
using 0x4F01, int 10.
(Credit to Ralph Brown, but his interrupt list doesn't give all the
answers:-)
What I'd like to know is: How do you find out which modes are
available, and how do you initialize SVGA modes. I'd also like to know if
there are bitplanes, how you address a pixel on the screen and if there are
any pages etc.
If someone had a description of this, an ftp cite where a could get this
info., or assembly/C code, I'd become very thanksful.

"Also for the not religous confessor, there is a mystery of higher values,
who's birth mankind - to the last - builds upon. They are indisputible. And
often disregarded. Seldom you hear them beeing prized, as seldom as you hear
a seeing man prizeing what he sees." Per Lagerkvist, The Fist
