Subject: VESA video modes
 
This may not be the right group for this, but...
 
does anyone know how to switch to a VESA videomode?
 
I'm particulary interested in any of the hi-color modes
(&H111 or &H114, for example) but the ordinary code to switch
modes doesn't appear to have any effect with these.
I know my videocards support them, so I'm obviously missing out
something.
 
! MOV &H...
! INT &H10
 
won't work.
 
Do the VESA modes require any other registers to be set?
