confused.

Are there any plans for including support for the ATI Rage 128 chipset into
svgalib?
The VESA setting does not work. Causes any program using svgalib to crash.
Are there any configuration settings in the kernel that may help with this?

This is probably a mundane question, but...
Is there a way to recycle unused PID's without rebooting the kernel?
So instead of the next available PID always getting larger and larger,
just reset it to use the first unused PID after 1. Is this possible?

I'd be happy to write a new routine in assembly, if I had a clue as to how
the VM algorithm works in Linux. What should swapoff do if all physical

I have to disagree on this. It runs fine on most PC's, as they use standard
devices.
