How does one go about programming support for non-standard video modes? 
(I'd like 512x384 with 8-bit color, implemented so that it's useable by
Allegro.)  UniVBE is able to do this even when using video cards that
ostensibly don't support that resolution, and I'm curious how this can
be done.

Thanks in advance for any pointers to documentation or other
information.

Mitchell
