This may be unrelated, but have you also applied the update patches
that can be found on the grx home page?

I didn't apply any offical patches to shiftscl.c, but rather tried
the patch I append. The test programs you mention seem to work here
in a full screen DOS window in 16 color mode (and in other color modes
as weel, but I think, then that function won't be used) with the
VESA driver. One other change I made, that could be related, is
to set the optimization options to -O only (but I kept 
-fomit-frame-pointer).

Regards,
Dieter
