Hello everyone.

What I'm trying to do is to switch the video modes.  currently I am doing
something like this:

union REGS r;

r.h.ah = 0x00;
r.h.al = 2; /*which is normal 80x25*/

int86 (0x10, &r, &r);

What I am having problems with is that I can't seem to find the modes I
want.  I am looking for 80x28, 80x43, 80x50. and would love to find
132x25, 132x28 and so on.

Am I going about it all wrong? Do I have to do something like access
different fonts instead?  I don't know, and would love any help.

Thanks a buch guys.  Have a good one.
