The SVGATextMode source archive for Linux has a DOS subdirectory. You need
to compile the STM.EXE with DJGPP. Also, because DOS doesn't have a
concept of screen sizes larger than 80x25 (a lot of programs in fact
assume a 2K screen buffer size), changing the screen resolution may not be
a good idea. I suppose RHIDE will let you do that, but I haven't checked
it myself.

You can get SVGATextMode from http://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/*
somewhere. (Sunsite has a neat search utility you can use)
