Via Epia-ML Bios Version 1.1.16 included VGA-Bios called Mclecomb.rom get file with dd if=/dev/mem of=vga1.rom bs=1 count=65536 skip=786432 later I have done a dd on vga1.rom with count 60146, because the extracted vga_bios from origbios.bin has a size of 60146 compare: cmp -cl origvga.rom vga2.rom Result: There are two different offsets. Offset 1A is A5, original Offset 1A is A6 Offset 5D is 01, original Offset 5D is 00 thats all. Unfortanetly I can not write the differences from Linuxbios, because, there are to much :D LinuxBios included VGA-Bios Mvpsd_15.rom from Epia-M Bios Version 1.1.13 if you want, you can have a log file ;) It seems, nearly the half code is overwritten. chris -- LinuxBIOS mailing list LinuxBIOS@openbios.org http://www.openbios.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
