Subject: VESA 1.2

I am using 640*480*256 VESA 1.2 graphics mode.  Is there a 
faster method of switching banks rather than thtough the BIOS?
	I know in real-mode there is a pointer to the video card 
provided in the vesa_modeinfo structure that works on VESA 1.2.  And in 
protected mode there is also a pointer but only for VESA 2.0!  Is 
ther a protected mode function for VESA 1.2 as well, or is it 
possible to call the real-mode address from protected mode? If so how?
	Thanks a lot for any help
		Tony
