  Hi,

  I'm not subscribed to the developer's list (since I'm not one! :)),
  so hope you see this.

  I didn't know it was a problem with all output devices, I don't run
  X and my card won't use the framebuffer, either. :(

  Anyway, you have a point, I hope somebody will see your reply. BTW,
  I love the svgalib performance, I'm impressed with what you guys
  have done with it. 

  Thanks for the correction!

  Steve
