- UniVBE(tm) - The Universal VESA VBE
- -----------------------------------
-
- Version 5.0
-
- 18 August 1994
-
-
- The Universal VESA VBE is a small Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR) program
- that extends the video BIOS of SuperVGA video cards to make them compatible
- with the Video Electonics Standards Association (VESA) recommended
- Video BIOS Extensions (VBE).
-
- By having a video card that has a VESA VBE compatible BIOS, or by installing
- this small TSR, programs that support the VESA VBE programming interface will
- work correctly for your SuperVGA. This helps to solve a lot of problems with
- compatability between different SuperVGA cards on the market. Note that this
- program will not take advantage of any of the acceleration features that your
- video card may provide.
-
- Printing the documentation
- --------------------------
-
- If you have a word processing program such as Microsoft Word for Windows
- or WordPerfect, you can load the 'Rich Text Format' version of the UniVBE/Pro
- documentation called UNIVBE.RTF into your word processor and print out a
- proper typeset manual for UniVBE/Pro. Alternatively you can read the plain
- ASCII text version of the documentation (UNIVBE.DOC) online, or print it
- to any plain ASCII text printer.
-
- Where to get the latest version
- -------------------------------
-
- You can probably download the latest shareware version of the package from
- your local BBS, or you via the internet using ftp from Simtel20 or garbo (and
- their mirrors):
-
- oak.oakland.edu: pub/msdos/graphics/univbe??.zip
- garbo.uwasa.fi: pc/graphics/univbe??.zip
-
- If you have access to CompuServe, you can download the file from the
- IBMPRO VESA file library (12) as the file uvbe??.zip (CompuServe has
- restrictive file naming conventions).
