Is there in F18 a successor to Vbetool?  Its usefulness went far beyond

In sevaerl occassions I hacve had to kill X but this  leaves the video card
in a bad state and I can no longer have a text display until I reboot.

In F17 vbetool could be used for resetting the video card to a sane state.
Now I am forced to reboot.


Unless there is a better successor vbetool should be reintroduced in
Fedora.

this is true.

if nothing else is submitted, get codes from oem of card.

put reset sequence in a file, then a shell script file with;

   cat "reset-sequence-fn" > /dev/vga

never know.
