Begin3 Title: SVGA textmode manipulation/enhancement Version: 0.7 Entered-date: 27MAR95 Description: Uses extra features found in all SVGA video cards to enhance Linux text modes independently of what the BIOS can do. It is configured with an XF86Config-like file, and allows setting of pixel clock, H/V timings, font size, cursor size, etc. Now you can use your video card AND your monitor to the MAX in textmode, as you used to do in XWindows. Current support includes S3, ET4000, Cirrus Logic, Trident, Western Digital, ATI and Video7 (Headland techn.) cards. It can also use an external clock program. Supports S3 special clock chips (largely untested). Includes: palette changer, clock probe, text/graphics mode grabber (for Linux and DOS), automatic font loading, monitor definition (H/V frequency limits).
