Hi,
- Determine if VBE is present and get list of video modes (function 0)
- Use the list of video modes to get information on each video mode (function 1), and choose a video mode
- Set the video mode (function 2)
- Get the LFB address from the data returned with mode information (function 1)
- Pump your video data into the LFB!
The newer VESA VBE 3.0 standard can be downloaded here:

For all things; perfection is, and will always remain, impossible to achieve in practice. However; by striving for perfection we create things that are as perfect as practically possible. Let the pursuit of perfection be our guide.
