partial succes in kgicon

i just tried the same thing radolphe did with my modified virge-driver.

i just '#if 0'ed the io_check_region and renamed kgim_graphic -> kgim_accel.

insmod kgicon works, i got the well known flashing of the screen. next step
was the 'con2fbmap 0 1'. oops, i got an oops. .(

this is a vanilla 2.1.111 kernel. i selected vgafb, vesafb, vgacon in the 
config, made the nodes 

mknod /dev/fb0 c 29 0
mknod /dev/fb1 c 29 32

links are made.

weigon@weigon:/linux2/home/weigon/degas/kgicon/util > ls /dev/fb* -l
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     root      29,   0 Jul 27 01:18 /dev/fb0

weigon@weigon:/linux2/home/weigon/degas/kgicon/util > cat /proc/fb
0 VGA+
1 KGI
