) >Also, how does one do VGA/SVGA programming under FreeBSD?
) Only in the hacky way the X server is doing.  (Basically, turning the
) VT into `graphics' mode, ie. telling the kernel that the application
) is now dealing itself with the adaptor.  The application should
) register a signal with the kernel to be notified whenever a VT switch
) has been requested.)
