It's very very similar to the VGA driver from GEM 3.1 (sdpsc9.vga); I think the source tree was forked somewhere between GEM/3.0 and GEM/3.1, because each driver has some fixes not found in the other. The list of functions provided by both drivers is identical. I've also been told that my 1024x768x256 driver works in Ventura 3. > does anyone know of any > source code for video drivers used in Ventura Publisher? TIA! I'm not aware of any. -- John Elliott
