Bug#460059: O: vbetool -- run real-mode video BIOS code to alter hardware state
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
The current maintainer of vbetool, Matthew Garrett <mjg59@ubuntu.com>,
is apparently not active anymore. Therefore, I orphan this package
now. If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- see
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed
instructions how to adopt a package properly.

Description: run real-mode video BIOS code to alter hardware state
vbetool uses lrmi in order to run code from the video BIOS. Currently,
it is able to alter DPMS states, save/restore video card state and
attempt to initialize the video card from scratch.
