Merry Christmas folks!

While trying to get Debian "Potato" 2.2 running on my 8595, it seems there once was an utility called xgapos.c with documentation in xgapos.txt that helped users getting the correct values for XF86Config to run their XGA(-1) cards.
There was also a version for the XGA-2 card in xgapos2.c.

Those were the original locations:

http://www.utdallas.edu/~swadlow/ps2linux/xgapos.c
http://www.utdallas.edu/~swadlow/ps2linux/xgapos.txt

Has anyone archived those files?

UT Dallas! GO comets! Gradated from there 20 years ago.

Wish we had source code to make xga2 give better color level in NT.

Wonderful, and it worked!
Could be worth archiving those sites and files.
