Hello there,
I have just compile Gnuplot with djgpp and it works but... but I don't have a
SVGA, only a normal VGA, and the vga.grd driver under djgpp/drivers is the
only driver that allows me using my display (I have also tried the drivers
supplied with  grx, vga & stdvga, but both of these seem actually SVGA
drivers) *and* the resolution I can obtain is no better than CGA. Now to the
question: how can I obtain true VGA resolution under djgpp using a vanilla
VGA display?

Regards, Angelo
