I'm using et4000, att20C490-85, ics2494a set.
This works fine for 1024x768x1i as I reported.   However, after I set 
my "MACHSPEED VGA 1600" card to 1024x768x8i (14" older display), very
atrange behaviors I'm seen.   8-1/2 runs ok, and displays b/w background
on the display.   Then, I tried New command, and located the terminal
emulater area by mouse, then, nothing came up with.

Is the 8 bit color mode is supported on this assembly?
What kinds of colors should I see, if I set it as 1024x768x8?
