<div>Hi,</div> <div>Maybe there is a way to do without the emulation layer altogether:</div> <div>Since in our case we use PCI graphics, I can record all the PCI cycles made by the VGA BIOS to the graphic card on a BIOS based system (using a PCI analyser), put them into a listing, run a perl script on it and include them in the firmware of the non BIOS system....an redo the process whenever we need to use a different graphic which doesn't happen very often </div> <div>-jf simon</div> <div> </div> <div> I think a sure way is to record all the PCI cycles generated by the VGA BIOS <BR><B><I>jean-francois simon <jfaslist@yahoo.fr></I></B> a écrit :</div> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid"> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid"> <DIV>Those legacy IO ports are NOT necessary mapped to the PCI IO
