If you have an ATI graphic card you might be able to atitvout from 
Lennart Poettering:
http://www.stud.uni-hamburg.de/users/lennart/projects/atitvout/

You'll need to substitute the included lrmi v0.6 with the newest version 
from http://sourceforge.net/projects/lrmi

You have to look up the ioperm() functions in vbeinfo.c and compare them 
with the appropriate i386_set_perm() functions.
After that you need to replace the ioperm() functions in atitvout.c 
which are exact the same as in vbeinfo.c with the i386_set_perm() function.
I've attached a patch for this which is more than a year old. It worked 
back then  but i didn't try again. Whatsmore you should use gmake 
instead of make.
