On my system, this utility lets me set the following text video modes:
40x25 40x50 80x25 80x50 132x25 132x43
40x30 40x60 80x30 80x60 90x25 90x30
90x50 90x60 132x30 132x50 132x60
Only the first 6 modes are available from my BIOS; the other modes
are achieved by writing directly to the VGA registers. This program
examines the VGA compatability bits returned by the VBE BIOS calls
to determine if the video hardware is register-compatible with VGA.
I don't know if the FreeDOS people would be interested in this or
not, but if someone reading this is on the FreeDOS mailing list,
would you please let them know? Thanks.
This program replaces my old 90x30.asm and 90x60.asm utilities.
