	Really... I've never had a problem with 1.4 using any VESA graphic
mode.  I use 8bbp modes all of the time (from within RHIDE) and I've never
had a crash, and I do get output on the screen.  I've found RHIDE to be
the most stable debugger for graphic-based programs I've ever seen.  In
fact, I've never been able to crash it (or have it screw up) and I've
tried it on "ATI Mach64" as well as "Cirrus Logic" cards.  The only
problem I've ever had was when running my VESA 1.2 library, it forgets the
current VESA bank (resets to zero), but that's not as much a problem as
some would think.
