Hi,

I have recently stumbled upon the idea that both the X.Org Driver, and
Syllable, use the vesa BIOS to set the Video mode.

Just in case i havn't pointed it out thus far, the symptoms are: The
Screen resolution is limited to just 640x480, and anything bigger then
this creates two black lines. These black lines cut off anything after
the 640x480 resolution -- i.e. the higher the resolution, the bigger
the black lines.

Anyway, i have been looking at the Haiku respitory, and i can't see
any graphics drivers (Erm, accelerants) that set the Video Mode
through the Vesa BIOS...Have i overlooked something simple?

Sorry to Bug :).
