Hello all who respond, 

Over the last couple weeks i've been designing a  very optimized vesa
graphic driver to handle 8bit modes, and I have a real slow down in
my code thats caused by the fact that I have to call int86 to gain
acces to vesa bios function 05 - set window offset.   What I want
to do is have my set mode function call function 01 - vesa mode info,
which returns a pointer to the cards build in set window offset
function, and then use the  pointer returned to execute that function
directly.  I was wondering if there is a way to execute that video
board function without having to  resort to inline asm....

Any help would really be nice...
