Aaaaarrgh. /me tries to kill vga_init_vbe() usage for everything (but isa-vga) for *months* now. I want to zap the magic framebuffer @ VBE_DISPI_LFB_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS instead of trying to convince guests to not touch it using all kinds of voodoo.

Can we *please* finally merge them? thanks, Gerd http://cgit.freedesktop.org/spice/qemu/log/?h=vgabios http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~kraxel/vgabios/log/
