I have what appears to be an "S3 SuperVGA 86c924" video card with 512K. It
has a "HiColor 15 bit DAC".
The problem is I have no matching .GRD file for DJGPP. The VGA.GRD that I
have will work with it for regular-VGA modes (up to 320x200x256). However,
I would dearly love to access 640x480x256 and 800x600x256 modes. It seems
I need either a GRD that was missing from that CD-ROM or a custom GRD. 
With this I could use the mapped VRAM at 0xD0000000 to do some serious
stuff...
So, I need this GRD file, and I have no FTP...where can I get it?
Thanks in advance for any help.
