SVGATextMode is a utility for Linux that mucks around with your SVGA card in order to produce strange and exotic text modes, such as 100x37, 80x40, 160x80, etc..

I sure wish that I were a better hardware programmer, then I would do it myself. > tg --Arthur Jerijian jerijian@aixugrad.seas.ucla.edu .sig under construction
