Serious bug in newer nVidia cards VESA VBE (Users)

Hm...
The VESA function 4F06h:
The function 4F06h is not crippled but completely unsupported. It always return the error code in AX.
And 4F07h
The FalcoSoft patch is working well - tested in Duke3D.
By the way, the function 4F07 is not only visualy ugly (because of the flickering) but it is also sluggish slow. Duke3D in 800x600 is almost unplayable and I estimate the framerate around 7-10 FPS. (and yes, the mentioned patch cures also this problem)
