the vga section is modest. i rarely see vga failures. i'm
also using cinap's real mode emulation to make vesa

Hello
I´m unable to get more than 8bits color depth with an ATI 5750. I can
do 1280x1024x8. Linux vesa driver can do full HD with 16bit colors
iirc.
slds.

hello
I have two cards plugged, could be that related to the failures i´m
seeing? (either weird pictures and colors or invalid mode errors).
I´ll give it another try.

yes, aux/vga and the kernel don't really support multiple video cards.
i'm seeing some funnies with the box i'm testing, even though bios has taken
pains to turn the onboard chipset off.
