This may dramatically improve performance on some hardware. .TP 8 .B \-nolinear don't use a linear framebuffer even if one is available. You don't want to use this option. .TP 8 .B \-swaprgb pass RGB values in the order that works on broken BIOSes. Use this if the colours are wrong in PseudoColor and 16 colour modes. .TP 8 .B \-map\-holes use a contiguous (hole-less) memory map.
