I now have a permanent licensing agreement with Elpin Systems (http://www.elpin.com)
to use and distribute this binary VGA BIOS with and *only* with Bochs.
The VGA BIOS from Elpin Systems, Inc. (http://www.elpin.com/)
is now permanently licensed for use with bochs, courtesy
of MandrakeSoft, creators of the leading "Linux-Mandrake"
distribution (http://www.linux-mandrake.com/). You may
freely use/distribute it with bochs, as long as it is used
in bochs for the intended use as a VGA BIOS.
You may NOT use this version of their VGA BIOS for any purposes
other than within the Bochs x86 emulator, without the permission of
Elpin Systems.
Please check out Elpin Systems. They make cool software games,
educational software, and VGA development products.
From what I've seen from Elpin Systems, their code is very
accurate, and I highly recommend them if you're looking
for precise (S)VGA emulation. Also they have entertainment
software. An excerpt from their Web site:
My infinite gratitude goes to MandrakeSoft. Please check
out their web site above, and help me thank them for being
such a kick-ass distro!
Elpin Systems is a manufacturer of software located in San Jose,
California. The Elpin Systems Entertainment Division is committed to
developing and delivering quality Windows applications into the
productivity and entertainment markets.
The Systems Division has developed a line of VGA development tools and
products, including the "VGA Core Test Suite", the "VGA Core Sample
Implementation", and the "VGA BIOS".
