Hello Urdroidness sir;

The selected setting is stored in Arachne.pck but this won't do you any
good because it is saved as an obscure text string and this string is
later translated by the video driver software in core.

Wassa panel? You mean Flat Panel Display or is that some weird Windows talk ?

Arachne uses the following VGA modes:
        640x480  800x600 1024x768
VGA
16color   012h    102h    104h
VESA
256color  101h    103h    105h
HICOLOR
Hi 15     110h    113h    116h
Hi 16     111h    114h    117h

Arachne uses other video card specific mode numbers but I have
no idea what mode 30 or 70 might be. Is that decimal ? 
I also have no idea what modes 1Eh and 46h are either.(I converted)
And Arachne does not use either of these for any cards anyway.
