vga_setdisplaystart(3) Svgalib User Manual vga_setdisplaystart(3) NAME vga_setdisplaystart - set the display start address SYNOPSIS #include <vga.h> void vga_setdisplaystart(int a); DESCRIPTION Set the display start address to a, where the address is the number of pix- els offset from the start of video memory, except for hicolor/truecolor modes, which use a unit of 1 byte. Can be used for page-flipping and vir- tual desktop scrolling. May not work properly for 16 color modes. You should ensure that the memory displayed is actually available on the SVGA card (query memory size with vga_modeinfo(3)) and ensure that it is saved by svgalib during console switches with vga_claimvideomemory(3). You may only set the bits of the display start address returned by vga_mod- einfo(3).
