It's not svgalib "dash" 1, it's svgalib negative 1, because if you still use this library there's probably something wrong with you. That said, this is a 'fork' of the most recent (haha) version found on the internets, with a ton of patches from various people around the internet cobbled together. I have not and will not make any outlandish efforts to credit people, but if you see something here you wrote and you want credit, message me. Should fix a lot of compiling issues under recent issues of Linux.

This is an _alpha_ release. Don't use it if you are not interested in svgalib development. Program using svgalib 1.9.0 or later don't need root provoleges (suid root). They do need access to /dev/svga, which is a char device with major 209 and minor 0. The module svgalib_helper need also be inserted. To make the devices, and the module (kernel 2.4 or newer), change to directory kernel/svgalib_helper, and type make install. There is a compile time option to return to old behaviour, of using root privileges to access /dev/mem, instead of svgalib helper. To compile for this select the NO_HELPER option in Makefile.cfg.
