Hi Alex,
If your having problems with SVGAlib it can be worth trying the "VESA"
compatible mode for VGA.
Do this by entering/enabling
chipset VESA
in the config file - /etc/vga/libvga.config

IMPORTANT NOTICE!!
LinRad is a complicated program where video speed is NOT insignificant! How
the function of SVGALib is effected by using VESA mode has not been
established and therefore its effect on LinRad remains unclear. It is likely
that your machines "performance" would also be a variable in this equation.
Try it and see! It works for me!

Does anybody know is it posible use svgalib-1.4.3 with my old svga
card 'RealTek 3105'. I need it for linrad running but can't
get G640x480x256 mode yet. Seems there is no driver for such a card...:-(
