Thanks. 32k, 64k, and 16m modes are all covered by the VESA standard; VESA compliant graphics code should work on all cards that use them. My Cirrus Logic card does a nice 800x600x64k mode that's great for Windows... to program these things, pick up a copy of the VESA spec from somewhere (it's probably on x2ftp... I don't have a URL handy, so if anyone has trouble finding it, mail me :-) I'm not sure which DJGPP graphics libraries support it.
