+This is a VNC viewer for SVGAlib.
+
+from the Web page:
+
+ The viewer doesn't do any scaling or scrolling, so the desktop you
+ connect to must be of a resolution supported by your SVGALIB setup.
+ Try creating servers of different geometries and connecting to them -
+ if your svgalib setup doesn't work for one resolution it may work for
+ another. Persevere - this has a lot of potential. You can use it to
+ make a very lightweight graphics terminal with reasonable performance
+ on low-end hardware.
+
+ The current version will not generally be able to connect to Windows
+ servers, because it requests a palette-based display which the Windows
+ server cannot generate.
+
+If you have problems, press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, or log in over the network and
+kill the svncviewer process.
