Subject: [ros-dev] VGA Driver Status

Good evening,

Even past EngCreateBitmap fix in trunk, VGA driver I wrote still having many
problems drawing, most with text output and colors. Example, desktop icon
appear monochrome, not color. But Paint palette has 16 colors. When draw in
Paint, white background become black! And after released mouse, deletes any
existing line, shape, ... drawn!

I am not having experience with Win32K system too much, and Richard said too
much dependency and regression can happen if touched. Also, other problem
exist with driver loading: multiple display driver not supported if previous
driver mode set fail. Timo Kreuzer said "yarotws" has fix for this, but
don't want to touch Win32k...

So, would like to ask help with getting VGA driver working. I soon commit to
trunk, and can be used with new vga/vbe miniport. Just need to edit registry
entries to load it.

Thank you!
