How does one go about setting a 320x256 resolution with 24 (32 actually)
bits colour? My S3 video card should surely be able to handle it, however no
VESA driver I've found supplies this mode. I've tweaked with video modes
under Linux X-servers and know it shouldn't be a problem to set almost any
resolution with any colour depth.

Is there a DOS/Win program which will allow me to generate user defined
modes? (Selectable from within DJGPP programs of course.)

Any help will be much appreciated.

Cheers,
