No, not currently, mainly because that requires a linear framebuffer
from SVGAlib, and I don't have a card supported by SVGAlib anymore.

It would be a bug in GGI's workarounds for SVGAlib bugs. ;)
We don't use SVGAlib's input handling code at all, becuase it is
too simple to support our event API.
What version of SVGAlib are you using btw?

If the 'reset' program fixes the problem it's not a gfx mode problem,
but a tty mode problem. That code would be in libgii/input/linux-kbd/
and possibly in libggi/display/linvtsw/
