Greetings,
Will this work with the matroxfb enabled? Or is there a way to get SVGAlib
to cooperate with that? Right now I get graphics, but in a way that it is
totally unusable. (i.e. line 1 is at left half of screen, line 2 is somewhere
else.)
If there is an easy fix could someone point me to that, otherwise TIA
Mark
