Hello, All !

Sorry to bother you again with stupid question, but seems I stucked
in problem, that I can't get direct access to IO ports from device driver.
Is there is some way I should request IO ports ? And I need to write to
video card ports, may they be busy ? If they so, how can I break through
thing grabbed it ?

I tried to test the presence of S3 chip and took code from X but I
got the result, as if I have no S3 at all.

Thanx.

Bye.
