[comp.sys.ibm.ps2.hardware] how to blank 8514/A display?

rommel@lan.informatik.tu-muenchen.dbp.de (Kai-Uwe Rommel) (01/24/91)

Is there a way to blank the display of an 8514/A card for example, for a
screen saver, without changing the current image on the screen ?
I need some port/command etc. to switch of the display and later switch
it back on without having to redraw the screen.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Kai Uwe Rommel
