In all SVGA modes first approx. 320 columns are OK, but the rest contains just dozen copies of first 320 columns with some new extra garbage. Did someone notice similar problem. Anyone knows the solution? X works find, SVGAtextmode seems to have similar problem but after approx 80 characters.. Honza
