Hi,
It's supposed that this code will give me the function putpixel() much= faster, and the way to access the Video Memory much faster without bank sw= itching
can you tell me where to find the best (fastest) of this for DJGPP? ..= ..
yes, I know Allegro already has it, now I'll try with it

Only old VESA 1.2 uses bankswitchi= ng. VESA 2.0 doesn't need it, and
99% of all cards support 2.0 these day= s (not true back in mid 90s).

Allegro should automatically choose th= e best graphics mode for you ...
if you let it. However, DOSBox is a ful= l cpu emulator, hence it's
inherently slower than NTVDM + V86 mode (whic= h no longer supports
graphics). The best you can do is close unnecessary = background
processes and turn up the "cycles" (repeatedly press Ctrl-F12= , I
think). Or try DOSEMU under Linux (much faster, V86 mode!!).

Wh= at installed? VESA should be built into your BIOS. You can even
alternat= ely use UNIVBE for older machines. (confused by the confusion)
