Hi all.
As you may noticed I am working on the SeaVideoBios (Geode part). And
I am running into
a simple question:
What is the default state/video mode the VideoBios should enter
during/after init?
In general I need to set the wanted mode via int10 AH=00h
Would it be okay to have no mode set during init and trust that the
mode is set before
using it?
SeaBIOS will always set the mode (to AH=03h) immiediately after
initializing the vgabios.  I've observed this behaviour in other off
the shelf BIOS implementation as well.
