Hi All,

I have a rather specialised application that wants to talk directly to
the video card.

Can anyone point me to some documentation on how to take control of the
console and switch to a non-text mode, in a similar way to XFree86?

Is it possible to hook into the card's vertical retrace interrupt
without writing a driver?

Thanks.
