NAME

       vga_setpage - set the 64K SVGA page number

SYNOPSIS

       #include <vga.h>

       void vga_setpage(int page);

DESCRIPTION

       Usually  SVGA  cards have more than the 64K memory which suffice for an
       ordinary VGA.  However, the memory window mapped at  vga_getgraphmem(3)
       is  only 64K bytes large.  vga_setpage() selects the page-th 64K memory
       chunk to be visible at position vga_getgraphmem(3).

       The fun(6) and vgatest(6) show the basic use of this function.
