 It would be nice to add PP buffer to KGIcon but I was told that mixing
accel handling with /dev/fb would not be accepted but handling accels with
a second driver (/dev/gfx) would be. Even this will be tough to get pass
linus but with enough press from other kernel developers which back me it
would get in.
