[PLUG] Running 'links -g'

  Has anyone here experience with the CLI browser, links?

  I'm trying to use it in graphics mode, but I see this error message as
soon as I press [Enter] on the command line:

svgalib: Cannot get I/O permissions.

  On the laptop, svgalib is a directory, /usr/lib/svgalib, with 755
permissions and owned by root.root. Does the error message mean that I need
to setuid for this directory and its contents in order to run links?

TIA,

Rich
