SOLLEX SuperVGA - GET EXTENSIONS INFO

AX = 7F00h

Return:
AL <> 7Fh if not supported
AL = 7Fh if supported
AH = status
00h successful

01h failed

Program: The SOLLEX (Smos videO controLLer EXtensions) SuperVGA functions are an extension to the VESA SuperVGA BIOS Extensions (see AX=4F00h) by Seiko Epson Corporation intended to provided a standardized interface to SuperVGA functionality not addressed by the VESA standard

Format of SOLLEX SuperVGA info structure:

Offset  Size    Description     (Table 00201)
00h    DWORD   pointer to VESA function dispatch table
04h    DWORD   pointer to SOLLEX function dispatch table
08h    DWORD   pointer to VESA SuperVGA info (see #00077 at AX=4F00h)
0Ch    DWORD   pointer to mode info structure table, consisting of
alternating ResInfo (see #00202) and VESA mode information
(see #00079 at AX=4F01h) blocks, terminated with an FFFFh word
10h    DWORD   pointer to font info structure table (see #00203)
14h    WORD    high resolution crystal frequency in Hz (0000h = not present)
16h    DWORD   pointer to ASCIZ ID string
1Ah    DWORD   pointer to timeout reset table
array of bytes, each a multiple of the minimum time increment
1Eh    WORD    minimum time increment in timer ticks
20h    BYTE    inverse options supported
bit 0:
Inverse supported
bits 1-7:
Reserved
21h    BYTE    normal color value
22h    BYTE    inverse color value
23h    WORD    port to be accessed for normal/inverse settings
25h    WORD    type of interface chip (currently undefined)
27h    WORD    program operational mode
bits 1-0:
00 no preference
01 terse (minimum detail in program messages)
10 verbose
11 use menus if supported, verbose mode otherwise
bits 7-2:
Reserved
29h    WORD    SOLLEX specification version
2Bh    WORD    version of VESA/SOLLEX implementation
2Dh    DWORD   offset to relocatable portion of SOLLEX extensions (for CONFIG)
2Eh    DWORD   offset to unused section of the extensions ROM
31h 16 BYTEs   reserved

Note: All DWORD pointers initially require segment fixups; if the segment is 0000h, it should be changed to the returned ES, otherwise it may be assumed to be correct
