Yeah!

I didn't know this lib (can be found as part of svgalib for those who care).

"unclean" is less than the reality! ;)
The graphic chip is a cyber5000, and the kernel driver only handles 
(few) vga modes.
I'm working on the TV output, in PAL format. I can't manage to set good 
timings (but almost), and the main problem is the interlaced mode I just 
cannot set correctly.
TVIA's doc is very poor (and we can't offer ourself the TVIA SDK that 
cost a lot)... I hope that I'll find some tools in the video BIOS for that.

By the way, do you have any tip for setting TVout to PAL mode in a 
cyberpro graphic chip?

Thanks Rudolf for pointing this lib.
