I believe I have made the problem with you extremely clear. You are spam-replying, without thinking for one second about what you write.
and VBE manual is also in japaneese
The hard copy I have in my desk drawer begs to differ. If you download the *English* version, you'll be able to read it in *English*.

Heh, it's better to be safe than sorry!
EDIT: Yes, that's right AJ, I pipped you to the reply yet again! Muahahaha!

The second link on the google search I posted is in English, when I view it.
The reason for any rudeness is because your posting style and line of questioning seems to indicate quite a lack of willingness to a) search yourself and b) extrapolate information based on official documentation. You came at this whole topic basically asking someone else to do the work for you. No one is going to write your VBE driver for your OS or project.

Here are my last suggestions before I leave this topic alone.
1) Read the Intel manuals. *Understand* the CPU and the mode you are programming in.
2) Read up on some information on the wiki and on osdever.net.
3) Have a go at writing a basic kernel with simple dynamic memory allocation, multitasking and v86. Not just by following a cut-and-paste tutorial, but by creating your own kernel from your own design.
4) Come back and try writnig a VESA driver from the documentation using your nice new kernel which already supports multitasking and v86.
Cheers,
Adam

In addition to AJ's post, You should really
Read the rules as well.
I'll lock this thread so you can think everything over, and we can forget and forgive what happened. I hope to see a different eddy in the next thread you open.
