I have little free time, and even less with physical access to the box, so it would be difficult. I have some C experience, and x86 assembly.

None of the FX card is supported at the moment, because there is still no documenatation available. I tried to treat the framebuffer as a 24bit non packed framebuffer, but that gives me some really odd looking graphic. Looks like PDC sets it up to some special pixel writing mode, because it only deals with 3 planes. Thomas. -- Crap can work. Given enough thrust pigs will fly, but it's not necessary a good idea.

You need to go into [Console Drivers] and turn on the frame-buffer support for your system ("Generic STI Framebuffer Support").
