LINE_COMP[7:0]

Line Compare Register Bits [7:0]. This value specifies the low eight bits of a compare
value that represents the scan line where the CRTC frame buffer address counter is
reset to 0. This can be used to create a split screen by using the Start Address registers
to specify a non-zero location at which to begin the screen image. The lower portion of
the screen (starting at frame buffer address 0) is immune to screen scrolling (and pel
panning as specified in the Attribute Mode Control register (Index 10h). Line Compare is
a 10-bit value. Bit 8 is located in the Overflow register (Index 07h[4]) and bit 9 is in the
Maximum Scan Line register (Index 09h[6]).
