	Bah; there ought to be an easier way to report bugs than a mailing
list.  It may be convenient for the programmers, but isn't necessarily so
for those people who just want to point out bugs.  But enough complaining...
	I've spotted a couple of bugs in the latest (pre)release of MPlayer,
both of them related to SVGAlib.  The first I've seen in the last few CVS
snapshots -- text doesn't echo after you quit the program.  A simple 'reset'
or 'stty echo' solves the problem, but I would rather a fix than a workaround.
	The second is rather more noticeable, and snuck in somewhere between
MPlayer-20020412 and MPlayer-0.90pre1 -- the screen jerks horribly, bobbing
up and down between two different positions.  It makes one rather seasick. :)

	For the record, I'm using Debian testing, Linux kernel 2.4.5, libc
2.2.5, gcc 2.95.4, ld and as 2.12.90.0.1, libvga 1.4.3 -- and it Worked For
Me in v0.60.

	Hope this helps to get these bugs fixed.
