Is SVGAlib going to be updated any time soon? I know it's a major hack with
security holes the size of Texas, but Linux + SVGA = a hell of a gaming
machine.
X-Quake just doesn't look work quite right for me. I'd love to play it from the
console, but I have a Millineum II chip which won't go above 320x200 under
svgalib.
Is SVGAlib dead? Is there ever going to be a replacement for it?
