I read something a guy named Herman Dullink create back in the days a svga Vesa 2.0 Dos Driver for the W32p.
Not sure its worth to try, but looks like the driver is lost.
Anyone here know something about it? Btw can share it?

"For ET4000/W32p only. Extends VBE 1.2 to be VBE 2.0. The main features implemented are palette functions, linear frame buffer and 32-bit interface. Written by Herman Dullink."

I searched but no luck. Last post found by Herman was"it is beta" and "only 95% working". If only he gave the name of the file it could help. Dosdays lists it but no file...

Hate posting a reply and then have to edit it because it made no sense 😁 First computer was an IBM 3270 workstation with CGA monitor. Stuff: https://archive.org/details/@horun

Nobody found it?
Here's some historical conversation where author sent his driver personally to someone else, no link...

Is it proved to work with SDD? Some time before I tried some version of SDD or univbe and it just printed 'unsupported chipset'...
