	     Hi! I'm a new djgpp user and I'm having some troubles using graphics
	on djgpp. When I compiled the GRTASK sample file, the line that should 
	scan the screen on a XOR-put appeared as randomic distributed dots...
	Then I used :

	   set go32=drivers D:/djgpp/drivers/vga.grd

	    and it worked on 320x200... I'd like to use my VESA board (CL-5246)
	in a higher resolution. Will GRX solve my problems? How can I "link" 
	the graphic driver on my executable? Can I also link go32.exe?

	    Besides, I'd like to ask one more thing: What does DJ stand for?

	                                         Rafael Pinto

Try cl5426.grn from the GRX 1.03 distribution as the driver specified in
your GO32 env. var. I think the defaults are set up such that it will even
work with "libgr.a", if not, link your program with "libgrx.a". This driver
will let you use resolutions up to 1024x768x256. Alternatively, you may
try "vesadrv.vdr" from the GRX 1.03 maintenance release (the original 1.03 
version == GO32's built-in driver does not work with Cirrus cards.)
