Sorry to sound so glum...I just wouldn't want to be wasting time on an, albeit minor, project which was going nowhere. I really appreciate the feedback and I've received e-mail from a few list members interested in seeing this happen. So I'm excited :) I think that if I can figure out a way to make this into a KLD that there really couldn't be any objections. :) I've got it working right now by including the modes in vga_isa.c, but I don't like the idea of adding kernel kludge seeing as most people probably don't need/want it.
