Moreover (I was going to bring this up at the next meeting), zero new
products from nVidia support vesafb, half from ATI do, Intel will be
dropping vesa support in the next year. So, from the point of view of a
distribution, there needs to be VGA-only solution.
If I'm not mistaken, the problem is that directfb does not work on
vga16fb, right?
