I also have +additional information for you. + +I can email you the binary for VxD which does exactly what you need: +given a physical address, returns a pointer that can be used by a +Win32 application. I'll also give you source for a Win32 app which +uses the VxD to read an area of physical memory. + +I don't offer this solution to everyone, since in most cases the +proper solution is for them to write a VxD which interacts with their +hardware, rather than simply getting a pointer to the hardware and +interacting with it from an application. + +However, in your case, you're just using a VxD as a tool to get your +Linux driver working...you shouldn't have to write a VxD for this :-) + +Let me know if you're interested. +=============================================================================== +Hello Karen + +A long time ago, you sent me your VXD for reading an area of physical +memory under Win32, so I could make register dumps of the graphic +chip. Did I ever mention, that it works perfectly for me? + +Why I contact you is, that I really would like to offer this solution +to all XFree86 members, so that it will be much easier in the future +for XFree86 to develop drivers for graphic boards. + +Can I count with your agreement?
