Re: graphics in pmode

I am very new to pmode. I am wondering if there is a simple way to set
the graphics mode in protected mode without switching back to real
mode. Perhaps using vm86 mode? Could someone send me a code sample
(preferably well-commented)?

I never test the VBE-PM-interface(vesa.org->vbe3.pdf),
so i don´t know it is possible to change a videomode with this interface.
All other simple ways are only for RM.

Not easy is to set a mode, by writing to the CRTC-Register.
On most cards the CRTC-Register are locked,
so it must be unlock to acess. But the unlocking-procedure vary by card.
