1. Bernie's SVGALib for Linux
Bernie,
Running DEMO1.EXU gives me the following:
1. screen blanks as though going into graphics mode
2. screen returns to text mode
3. I get this message: "[svgalib: allocated virtual console #10]"
4. Returned to prompt.
I don't think that's what's supposed to happen. Do you have any idea why
it's doing this?
Thanks,
ck

That's what I thought... further investigation, however, reveals:
The font include file (ROM14X14.E or somesuch) was all-caps. Had to
rename it to lowercase to match the "include" statement. heh. I then ran
it but it shut my monitor off when it got to the graphics_mode(261)
change out of text mode (worked fine up to that point). So, I just
changed the graphics_mode from 261 to something else and found one that
worked for me. Then I got all the pretty lines! Very cool! Now let's see
what else I can do with it.

P.S. This is running on FreeBSD...

I feel like an underprivileged section of the population! I gotta work
harder for less pay! heheh...
Irv, I don't know where we ended up, but the test program you had me run
ran fine... What next? :)
