A package for use with BL3 and kernel 2.4.31, because zgv only works with this kernel if it has libvga.so.1.4.3 (or later), not available precompiled for libc5.

You can upgrade BL3 or BL2 with SW81 glibc 2.2.5 and use the SW81 libvga.so.1.4.3 and delilinux zgv.

For BL3 with kernel 2.2.26, use BL1 newzgv with SW4.0 svgalib.tgz.
For BL2 with kernel 2.2.16, use delinux zgv (if you can find it) with SW7.1 svgalib.tgz

I needed this package to make zgv work on one computer that will only boot with kernel 2.4.31, and also used it on laptops with BL3. The kernel is also needed for the USB camera, whence come the images to be viewed with zgv.

You will also need /etc/libvga.config which I forgot to include but is available from any svgalib package. I think there is a minimalist version in BL1, VGA only. If zgv is not working, try uncommenting chipset VESA and if that does not work try chipset VGA. My matrox card requires VESA and won't work with VGA, another card won't work with VESA.
