There is a single binary which is about 3 meg, which can be run in
either text-mode or graphics-mode. It is distributed as source code
available at http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~clock/twibright/links/
along with instructions for required libraries to compile it.

If you can't get zgv to work, I don't think that svgalib links will
work. I am using zgv 5.6 with svgalib 1.4.3 with an ATI 4 meg card
and 17" monitor (Nano). In /etc/vga/libvga.config I set chipset to
VESA (not ATI) for the card, and had to tweak the modelines for my
monitor (same as X version 3).

I think it would be up to Steven, if he wants to compile it for
BasicLinux. I haven't got that far yet.
