Question

How to use Vesa Video mode in Java?

Answer 1

You can have java run as a full screen app, aka exclusive mode.

DisplayMode oldDisplayMode = myDevice.getDisplayMode();
try {
    myDevice.setFullScreenWindow(myWindow);
    myDevice.setDisplayMode(newDisplayMode);
    ...
} finally {
    myDevice.setDisplayMode(oldDisplayMode);
    myDevice.setFullScreenWindow(null);
}

You can also change the display mode. If the device supports the Vesa modes, then it may be in the list of available modes in Java.
