Jon,

Reciently theres been a lot of talk on the LinuxBIOS list on the 
softbooting of vga cards and all the various forks there are of the 
x86emu code.  X, LinuxBIOS, DRI and probally a few others.  What works 
with what card, etc.

Its Egbert Eich's wish that we try to unify these things into a 
libsoftboot that all projects could use.  That way fixes and improvments 
will be shared by all rather than just each specific project.

A GNU Arch repository is being created on openbios.org to host 
developement.

You seem the be the man for the DRI x86emu.  Interested in trying to 
merge your stuff into the project?  I know that your ROM map and  setup 
stuff is quite different than X or LB but you still use basically the 
same core right?
