I'm sure that other people have had the same problem, but altought I
read a lot of tutorials and FAQs I couldn't solve it.  So please help
me.

I recently started to make a game.  At a short time after I started I
understood that using 16-bit it will be a pain to get memory, so I moved
from TurboC to DJGPP.  My problem is that I CAN'T get VESA information
correctly.  In the past week I read lots of stuff about this but I
couldn't get it right.

The reason I don't use Allegro or some other library is that I want to
UNDERSTAND this stuff not just use it.  In fact the purpose of the game
I do is so I can learn, not to sell it.

If you have ANY FAQs or tutorials that explain very clearly how to get
that VESA info please send them to me.  Also if you have a well
commented code please send it to me.  I promise I won't copyright it or
anything.
