Hello! This (s. below at ~~~) is definitly wrong. SVGATextMode does not only increase the number of lines on the screen. Setting kernel vidmode results only in 80x25, 80x28 and 80x50 modes. There is no gain for your eyes in that, but: * With SVGATextMode you get all out of the expensive modern

Why do you want to run SVGATextMode anyway? I ran it once and it was more trouble than it's worth. The only good of it is to make more lines on the screen, and you can set your kernel vidmode to EXT for that (50 line mode) On Sun, 16 Mar 1997, Bjoern Starke wrote: Hello, where to find
