Hi,

This is an experimental framebuffer driver for VirtualBox and Bochs VBE
displays. It started off as a proof of concept and grew into the code it
is now. When testing Linux in Bochs or VirtualBox this allows greater
control over the display and bit depth, though no h/w acceleration.

What do you think? Would this be something that could make it into the
mainline kernel?
I don't see why not, although I know nothing about VirtualBox nor Bochs.
But with a very quick glance, it at least needs to be changed to match
the kernel coding conventions.
