Well it's possible with SVGA-text    BUT   if you set your console in 132 mode
and start TN5250 (AS400 is standard 80x25) then the screen (or better said
the fonts) are to small to read all well.... so the only solution that could 
be made is that TN5250 starts in 80x25 mode and switches to 132-mode when
you reach an 132-screen. This isn't possible is it ?
