Sounds great... Somewhere, I have the Cirrus Logic CL-GD542X/3X Hardware
Reference manual. The 542X Cirrus Logic chips are a good one to emulate
because they are a good no-frills chip which are simple to program
directly and (in the VLB/PCI versions) have a simple linear frame buffer
and memory mapped I/O.
