Up to now NO.

Changed the int also in via-cuda.c -> It compiles with warnings.

On the wallstreet  I get as far as Jack does, but my screen is
unreadable. On the 7200 (601-cpu) I enter the xmon just after arch:exit.
The only thing I see here is this:

vector: 700 at pc = c00061bc, lr = c0004bd4, msr = 81030, sp = c0208f10 [c0208e60]
current = c0207020, pid = 0, comm = swapper.

No key input works..... (also ctrl apple power doesn't maybe due to my
usb & adb combination?)
