 Hello,

For my own edification I am writing a simple VGA driver for my PCI video card.
I have two questions that probably many could answer. I am using v2.4-test7.

1) request_region(VGA_IO_BASE, VGA_IO_SIZE, "vga") always fails.
    How do I get the standard vga ports?

2) Why aren't these ports listed in the resources? All of my resources
    exist in high PCI memory?

Thank you for your time.
