Since lot of people is asking for a way to detect VESA version and mode
informations, attached you can find a C source to be compiled with some 16
bit DOS compiler ... as a side note, in the past, before my linux days, I
liked very much the good old Borland C (hint hint). Of course must be run
in DOS.
It should work, even if it was written long time ago (very long time ago)
using the VESA specifications for DOS (int 0x10 et al): tested with VESA 1.2
The only requirement is that you have to compile it by yourself.
NOTE: this is one of my first attempts to work out something from a
graphic card (the code is ugly and the comments are C++ style: heh
... I was so silly :). Anyway it should not crash your computer.
.. and please .. don't tell me that "it don't work" .. it is code found
in an old directory on my hard disk: it never leaved it in the past many
years ... I am more interested in something like "thanks it work" .. of
course, I'm joking :)
Ciao,
Riccardo.
