i -finally- figured out how to create my own root
disk, and just tested out the VESA driver on my
ATi All-In-Wonder on my NT box - worked perfectly
for all modes up to 1280x1024x16M.

Same problem as before, the font gets garbled on
return to text mode and i must run setfont to be
able to see again.

Hope somebody can give me some info on the vga
font, because this could be the last release of
svgalib ever ;)
*All* cards should be support, since any modern
card supports VESA v1.2, if not VESA v2.0, and
all the ancient cards have TSR's for VESA.

Tho i must say, a 1.5second delay to load 2.5M
of (automatically generated) config files, on
a K6-200MHz, is quite a long delay.
