*headscratch* The 2.1.129 pre-patch 5 changelog says that they added
"matrox acceleration for framebuffer" which implies hardware
acceleration is at least being worked on for the kernel video drivers.
Anyone with any evidence to the contrary should let me know. And it
seems like the GGI folks are changing or at least supporting the Linux
fbcon drivers.
