I don't think that there's a Python binding for it. Svgalib never has gained enough popularity for anybody to write such bindings. However, as long as the video card supports VGA or VESA it should work. Another possibility might be using Xvesa (KDrive) which is a really tiny self-containing X server for VGA/SVGA/FBdev. With this you can atleast use simple GUI toolkits like Athena or TK or even use Xlib directly (if you don't fear that adventure) See: http://www.xfree86.org/current/Xvesa.1.html http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/kdrive.html HTH -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
