Dasse...

Maybe it's my fault, i'm not so good at english :)

It's better to start from the begin.

Someone tould us that is vesa 2.0 (using linear memory) was slower
that it Vesa 1.2
So, i think that maybe, maybe the emulator that he was running didn't
support directly is board. In that cases if the emulator (Vesa 2.0)
detects Vesa 1.2 it redirects Vesa 2.0 calls to board by using Vesa
1.2 calls. This process it's much slower than using Vesa 1.2 calls
because he must "convert" Vesa 2.0 to Vesa 1.2
I don't know the details of the process i only know how this can be
done.
