Hey all,

When trying to play a game that uses svgalib for FreeBSD, i get a blank
screen with a cursor at the top-left of the screen when trying to run the
program.  If I press ALT-<terminal #> to 'reset' the screen, it shows me
back at my prompt with "Bus error" after my last prompt.

I thought it was just the game (quakeforge) but it does it on all programs
that use svgalib.

Extra info:  I have a Geforce 256 Nvidia card, 600 mhz duron, asus a7v..
and I tried running the game from console, not X.

Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!!
