Does anyone has text console or framebuffer working on SC1200 without VGA-BIOS ?

Maybe the BLDT and/or some revenging of the VGA VSM could point to the right
bits.

Also see Christer Weinigel's work in the nano port, although I don't
remember if he had graphics up on it. I seem to recall it used the SC2200
which has an LCD driver as it's speciality.
