Hello, savetextmode, a utility that comes with SVGATextMode 1.8, saves the text mode data in /tmp, in two files with the mode 644: [/tmp] root@Death# ls -lA total 1 drwxrwxrwx 2 root gods 1024 Sep 24 1998 .X11-unix/ [/tmp] root@Death# savetextmode svgalib: Using S3 driver (Trio64, 4096K). svgalib: s3: chipsets newer than S3-864 is not supported well yet. svgalib: RAMDAC: Trio64: MCLK = 47.131 MHz [/tmp] root@Death# ls -lA total 35 drwxrwxrwx 2 root gods 1024 Sep 24 1998 .X11-unix/ -rw-r--r-- 1 root gods 32768 Oct 21 22:56 fontdata -rw-r--r-- 1 root gods 385 Oct 21 22:56 textregs Also, I would like to add that savetextmode accepts no parameters. So... any user on the system that knows that the root is using SVGATextMode could link any of the files to a file that he wants to be overwritten.
