I thought the objection to SVGAlib functions was that you have to have root privileges to run applications, and for that reason libvgl was the only FreeBSD-seal-of-approval way of accessing console graphics. Yet, even with permissions 755, I can't run the demo (found in source form in /usr/share/examples/libvgl) except as root. (As root, it runs like a charm.) What do users need to run libvgl applications? -- Lars Eighner eighner@io.com http://www.io.com/~eighner/ Don't sweat the petty things, just pet the sweaty things.
