Hello there!
VESA documentation tells that when I call 4f00h function I have to write to di register the address of info buffer which is recommended to be 512 bytes for VESA 2 and higher. And there are 16h-19h and 1Ah-1Dh offsets in this buffer that contain far pointers to vendor name string and videocard name string. Please help how to extract this information from these pointers and how to do it when I work in protected mode? Can I make my info buffer 256 bytes instead of 512 and read these strings? THANK YOU!!!
