Yes that's what I've been planning to do (display/L_common for 'L'inux
specific stuff).  [BTW, memory ? monotext ? they don't need it.]

I've been having a break from GGI coding for the last couple of days,
but I'll get stuck into moving the common code from display/fbdev to
display/L_common *right now*.
