This is a Visualize-48XP graphics card.  There's no support listed for
it in stifb.  It might be able to work if anyone has specs...

Hi Willy,

yes, you are right:
#define CRT_ID_THUNDER2         0x2F8D570E      /* Thunder 2 VISUALIZE 48 XP*/

Can't someone insided HP take a look what needs to be done, or
if it's compatible to one of the supported cards ?

Regards,
Helge
