Hi everybody,

I'm stuck with a nasty little problem concerning BIOS int 0x13 (which
I need to use for raw disk access). I have this old program of mine which
I now want to recompile using gcc. Apparently, go32.exe will not pass int
0x13 through (I checked exphdlr.c and yes, I guess that's the source of
the problem). Would it be ok to just add a 'case 0x13:' to the list of
interrupts that get passed to generic_handler (I don't remember the correct
name perhaps)?
Also, I've heard that the go32.exe that comes with the standard 2.4.1
distribution has a bug that prevents graphics from working, and that there
is a replacement somewhere. Are there also source diffs available so that
I could bring my go32 sources to the current level before messing around
with them myself?

Thanks for any pointers and ideas!
Best,
-- Dieter
