I'm using sgvalib on a Geode in both VGA and VESA mode and have it
working up to 1024x768x24 - also with TV output.
The only problem I don't seem to be able to fix is restoring text mode.
The best I can get is text mode restored, but the text screen does not
scroll at all. At worst, the screen is full of (graphics type) rubish
and the only identifiable feature is the cursor !
I have tried "restoretextmode", but haven't been able to make any
difference.
