Multiheaded Millennium works fine!

Well as the subject says multihead worked great.
I had the following consoles running:
1. CL5430 kgicon 320x200x8
2. CL5430 kgicon 640x400x8
3. Mill 2 kgicon 640x400x8
4. Mill 2 kgicon 800x600x16
5. Mill 2 kgicon 1024x768x32
6. Mill 2 kgicon 640x480x8
7. XF86_SVGA X-server running on the CL5430
          
Pretty darn impressing!
Now if I could only have an accelerated X-server that works on  
the Millennium II after the KGI-driver has been loaded.
(The MMIO mode seems to confuse the XF86_SVGA more than a bit ;)
Until that comes true, where can I find an XF86_FBDEV server for
ix86 (preferedly glibc2) ?

I also noted that fbcon doesn't work in 2.1.114 when virtual y !=
visible.
(vgafb and the CL5430 driver gives a very weird display, and the
Millennium driver severely corrupts kernel-memory (first it
does a few OOPSes then it either hard-reboots or locks up)
Here's some lines from my log:

Does virtual y != visble work in 2.1.115 ?
