Re: Accels and /dev/gfx.
When you say that VC switching will be disabled on open(/dev/fb),
are you saying that I can choose between virtual consoles and
text mode, or a single console and the penguin logo? (And high
refresh -- much more important).
PLEASE, have a way for the user to say "I'm just doing plain text
emulation in graphics mode" so we can keep the virtual consoles.
Even if it turns into a 4 MB dump from graphics memory to swap file
by some user program.
I don't want to have to start X just to get both high refresh
and multiple windows. (Lets face it, between window borders and
screen panels, you loose too many pixels on the terminal windows.)
