Is someone having some code for plotting pixels in 8+-bit VESA graphics
modes? It should work with Borland C 3.1 (may contain intel assembly) -
sorry, but I don't know any other place where to ask... I've already
written the main code but I have no clue how to do bank switching,...
(it's my first try on VESA programming - everything's okay except the
drawing functions ;). The tutorials that I've found are complete
VESA-howto's for DJGPP or WatcomC (and I'm really the wrong person for
porting 32-bit AT&T / intel assembly to 16-bit intel assembly ;-). So I
mean plotting a single pixel by using

[very simplified, 8-bit modes]
pokeb( 0xA000, pixelOffset, color);

works fine for the first bank. But what do I have to do now? When
crossing a bank boundary I have to do bank switching - right?

Thanks a lot in advance!
