NAME

       vga_gettextmoderegs, vga_settextmoderegs - get/set the vga state used in text mode

SYNOPSIS

       #include <vga.h>

       void vga_gettextmoderegs(void *state);
       void vga_settextmoderegs(void *state);

DESCRIPTION

       The  functions  gives  access to the buffer where svgalib saves the vga state which is use
       when the kernel displays text on the  SVGA.   This  is  used  by  the  restoretextmode(1),
       savetextmode(1), and textmode(1) utilities to restore a possibly screwed console.

       The  buffer  currently  occupies  385 bytes. It can't do any harm to make it substantially
       larger to allow for future enhancements.
