VESA BIOS Extensions (VBE) are feasible for fairly quick turnaround for 1.x support, but 2.x gets somewhat complicated with protected mode memory mapping, frame buffers and such. Since 2.x includes all of 1.x features, it would be most realistic to implement 1.x completely and then add 2.x support as time and resources permit.
My return question however is: is anyone even using VBE anymore? - Sean Kelly ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) On Tue, 26 Apr 2005, Raphael Jacquot wrote: > Peter TB Brett wrote: > > Hi all, > > > > I've been working on updating the wiki feature list. > > > > As far as VESA standards are concerned, what I've got at the moment is > > just DDC & EDID. > > > > Are we planning to support Display Power Management Signalling (DPMS) and > > the VESA BIOS Extensions? > > > > Let the discussion commence. :-) > > > > Peter Brett > > > > As I understand it, DPMS is yet more I2C chatter on the DDC & EDID lines... > _______________________________________________ > Open-graphics mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics > List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com) > -- Thank you!
