  12. Hi there,
  13.          I have just released the second version of the SuperVGA test
  14. kit library. This library contains full source code for the auto detection,
  15. bank switching and extended page flipping code used in the MGL. It also
  16. contains two test programs, one for 16 color modes and one for 256 color
  17. modes to test the routines.
  18.  
  19. This new version should fix the problems with ET3000 and Video7 bank
  20. switching, and the ATI memory detection problem. Once again, could 
  21. people try the test programs on their machines and report back to 
  22. me.
  23.  
  24. You can ftp it from the following address:
  25.  
  26.     godzilla.cgl.rmit.oz.au (131.170.14.2)
  27.  
  28. as the file:
  29.  
  30.     kjb/MGL/svgakt11.zip
  31.  
  32. I will also be uploading the file to Simtel20 and garbo in the next few
  33. days.
  34.  
  35. I would appreciate it if people could fill in the following form and mail it
  36. back to me.
