Yes, but
Not really external, the "onboard" Cyberpro 5000 graphic chipset looks
like a integrated pci card with own memory. I guess external is the
right word for that :D
Under factory bios, the device 00:12.4 is not shown with lspci.
We know, that it is possible to disable the special graphic instructions
for the Geode CPU, but I think 00:12.4 is the integrated graphic stuff
at the southbridge cs5530.
So, is it automaticaly disabled, when the Geode Graphic stuff is
disabled or is there a magic bit for the cs5530 itself?
However, it would be fine to totally disable device 00:12.4
Our current main problem is the slow coming up "external" vga device.
It takes around 90 seconds to initialize this device under LB with the
emulator.

That could help, currently is it set to 0x60

What about CPU revisions, could it be that this registers have changed
in the time? I guess, I use an older datassheet.
