Just out of curiousity, what method are you using to find the available modes?
Are you using the recommended mode in VBE 2+ where you trip throught the mode
list pointer until you get the right one?  Or are you just arbitrarily picked
what would be the right mode number and using it?  Also, are you sure your
video card/VBE implementation supports that mode?

If you want to send me the relevent code pieces, I can check to see if it's
alright (although I use Watcom/NASM, I should be able to puzzle out DJGPP's
method of doing things).
