This is a VNC viewer for SVGAlib.
from the Web page:
The viewer doesn't do any scaling or scrolling, so the desktop you
connect to must be of a resolution supported by your SVGALIB setup.
Try creating servers of different geometries and connecting to them -
if your svgalib setup doesn't work for one resolution it may work for
another. Persevere - this has a lot of potential. You can use it to
make a very lightweight graphics terminal with reasonable performance
on low-end hardware.
The current version will not generally be able to connect to Windows
servers, because it requests a palette-based display which the Windows
server cannot generate.
If you have problems, press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, or log in over the network and
kill the svncviewer process.
