Re: svgatextmode

In the program there is a configuration file /etc/TextConfig where you
specify your video card and so forth.  To improve your resolution type
SVGATextMode 80x40x9 or whatever desired resolution you have.  I use the 
program in that mode.  You can check with the file for all the
possibilities you can use.  After you find a desired resolution you have to
specify that within the configuration file undersa "DefaultMode."
