[] I was working with my programmer today trying to change the system color pallette from that funky set of garish bright colors to a support an 8 element gray scale. Anyone have any examples of how this is done, as the discussion in the reference manual isn't working. mike -- "There is no problem too big that can't be solved with high explosives"-Rush Mike Smithwick - ames!zorch!mike

The grays demo program that is provided in that article proves it. You might be able to do this with other vendors 'standard' vga drivers, but I haven't tried that.
