Hi James,
About this time last year, I needed something to put a pixel on a display for a visual 
acuity test, and did not want to use the commercial development package (intellectual 
freedom issues were involved, and I liked the philosophy behind GNU/Linux).

In the space of about 1 month and $200 (books of various sorts) I had my visual acuity 
test running.  I had some dumb trouble installing the lib the first time, and the 
listserv came to my rescue.  The VESA driver works well on most hardware.

There is a very flat and low learning curve for svgalib if your needs are modest.  Go 
for it.

Joe
