I finally got svgalib to compile and load.  Advmame is now running in Linux
(Hooray!!)

But my problem is that when I power down, the svga devices (/dev/svga;
/dev/svga1; /dev/svga2; /dev/svga3/; and /dev/svga4/) disappear.  The
svgalib_helper.ko module loads just fine, but I can't get my svga devices
back unless I do a "make clean" then "make install"

After I "make install" they reappear - -only until I shutdown and reboot
again, then I have to recompile to get them back.  I'm running on Mandriva
Linux 2006 (2.6.12-12 kernel).

Does anyone know what can be done so I don't have to recompile every time?

Thanks!
Ken
