You added a small but insufferable RIVATNT patch to SVGATextMode that was
meant to add support for TNT but instead broke all nvidia. That's an
interesting case for qa :)

it's got a line in it that looks like this

+  if ( (!pcr) || (pcr->_device != PCI_CHIP_RIVA128) || (pcr->_device !=
PCI_CHIP_RIVATNT) )

and it should look like this

+  if ( (!pcr) || ((pcr->_device != PCI_CHIP_RIVA128) && (pcr->_device !=
PCI_CHIP_RIVATNT)) )

loverly stuff. now things work right. and now I can get to bed. night

ur doing a great job with all ur stuff btw! keep it up :)
