since a lot of fluff about xvesa has been tossed around (hello lee)
perhaps a tiny xserver for the 8514 card should be introduced as an
option... it gives 1024x768@8bpp (43hz interlaced) and several older
(ISA) cards support its commands... (the ATI mach 8 and mach 32 come
to mind.. which would only work in 16 colors in xvesa) maybe lees 512k
intel chip (among many other old chips) supports this old standard as
well...?

this could perhaps help alot of BL users... just an idea...
