It seems more sensible to just fix up the drivers that don't do this right.. most of the broken drivers seem to be geared at x86 anyways where people generally don't seem to care.
X86 people don't care because they have VGA (with all of it's warts). But that doesn't mean that VGA is a good thing. VGA lets X86 systems run without needing framebuffer support. -- Jon Smirl jonsmirl@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
