Hi again, yet another update for FDAPM and the IDLEDPMS screen saver that comes with it since earlier this month:
- idledpms now updates the timeout of an already loaded copy if you run it again, so you can always reconfigure at any time. the binary is still only 1 kilobyte :-). - fdapm vgaon, fdapm vgaoff, and idledpms now preserve the ega/vga sequencer clocking mode, fixing a stupid old bug where entering or leaving "screen off" energy save mode would mess up what you see in graphics mode. - vbe/pm is no longer trusted (Mateusz has a VGA BIOS that says it can do VESA VBE/PM, but whatever you do, the screen only stays in sleep state for a second). I still use vbe/pm if available, but also do EGA/VGA after that. File: www.coli.uni-saarland.de/~eric/stuff/soft/ fdapm-2007jul21.zip Eric PS: Why do VBE/PM -and- VGA BIOS -and- EGA/VGA-I/O access? Because at least one of them will work ;-). Even on hyper modern hardware which has no classic EGA/VGA I/O ports. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
