Secondly, What can I find a list of other interrupts within FreeBSD like the int 80h. Or is this the only interrupt. Like example interrupt for video stuff, disk access etc. .etc FreeBSD doesn't use interrupt vectors for that sort of thing; it's not DOS. You should always use the system calls for manipulating shared resources. It is possible to call the video BIOS under certain circumstances from a user process, but this is done through a v86 monitor, whilst in v86 mode; but generally, you should use the syscons(4) driver or Xlib if you wish to use graphics. The Developer's Handbook covers most of these topics.

In general, you don't access the hardware directly unless you're writing a device driver. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Assembly interrupts and Developers handbook
First I would like to know where I can buy a copy of the FreeBSD Developer's Handbook. Nice to have a handbook that I can hold in my hand. Secondly, What can I find a list of other interrupts within FreeBSD like the int 80h. Or is this the only interrupt. Like example interrupt for video stuff, disk access etc. .etc thanks in advance, just another happy FreeBSD user 4.8-Release :) Suppressed minds have no Freedom of Choice - Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
