[Qemu-trivial] [PATCH 0/2] Trivial documentation updates for sun4m/PowerPC

[Mark Cave-Ayland]

Hi all,

Here are a couple of minor documentation updates - the first is for sun4m and 
is primarily concerned with documenting the new CG3 framebuffer whilst touching
up a couple of minor errors. The second updates the documentation with respect
to the default PowerPC framebuffer settings which was changed in QEMU 1.7 to
800x600x32.


ATB,

Mark.
