Bug#460308: O: vbetool -- run real-mode video BIOS code to alter hardware state

[Joel Franco <joel.franco@gmail.com>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Hi,

I use this package and want to adopt it. I already have packaged nettee
(a easy network tee program) in mentors.debian.org and i'm waiting for a
sponsor after have corrected all the issues mentionated in the maillist.

Regards,

I intend to orphan the vbetool package.

The package description is:
 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.
