First crack at this - as a patch against 2.6.0-test5 - is at
http://www.bear-cave.org.uk/linux/pm2fb/pm2fb-2.6.patch.gz.

Currently the driver only supports 'Generic PCI' cards on x86; that's the only
hardware (Graphics Blaster Exxtreme) I have access to. It is also unaccelerated.
I've been using it for a week in conjunction with the XFree Glint driver (via
UseFBDev) and it seems to work but has received only the most cursory testing.

All reviews/advice/bug reports/etc. welcome.
