answer coming.
11H is 640X480 in monochrome.  
12H is 640X480 in color.

erm...nietod...is that 256 colors mode?
I don't know.  I assumed it was the maximum
I found a table in ralph browns's interrupts books (the bible). 12H is 16 color.  The 256 color options seem to be hardware dependant, although I suspect that there is a standard interrupt that all SVGA supports, there is no listing as such.

Actually, they all seem to be 2EH!  It is just that they are listed by manufacturer.  Perhaps 2EH works for all.
Opps.  Now I see some 640X480X256 entries that are not 2Eh.  Although perhaps the cards will still recognize 2EH.
