SeaVGABIOS is the +default VGA BIOS on [QEMU](http://www.qemu.org/). SeaVGABIOS can also +run natively on some X86 VGA hardware with +[coreboot](http://www.coreboot.org/). + +Building SeaVGABIOS +=================== + +To build SeaVGABIOS, obtain the [code](Download), run `make +menuconfig` and select the type of VGA BIOS to build in the "VGA ROM" +menu. Once selected, run `make` and the final VGA BIOS binary will be +located in "out/vgabios.bin". + +The choice of available VGA BIOSes within "make menuconfig" is +dependent on whether CONFIG_QEMU, CONFIG_COREBOOT, or CONFIG_CSM is +selected. Also, the debug options under the "Debugging" menu apply to +SeaVGABIOS. All other options found in "make menuconfig" apply only to +SeaBIOS and will not impact the SeaVGABIOS build. + +If SeaVGABIOS is needed for multiple different devices (eg, QEMU's +cirrus emulation and QEMU's "dispi" emulation), then one must compile +SeaVGABIOS multiple times with the appropriate config for each build. + +SeaVGABIOS code +=============== + +The source code for SeaVGABIOS is located in the SeaBIOS +[git repository](Download). The main VGA BIOS code is located in the +"vgasrc/" directory. The VGA BIOS code is always compiled in 16bit +mode. + +The SeaVGABIOS builds to a separate binary from the main SeaBIOS +binary, and much of the VGA BIOS code is separate from the main BIOS +code. However, much of the SeaBIOS +[developer documentation](Developer_Documentation) applies to +SeaVGABIOS. To contribute, please join the +[SeaBIOS mailing list](Mailinglist). -- cgit 1.2.3-korg
