Bottom line is a tool would be great. Any Intel VGA pre- i845 there is no
way to build a new good working VGA Bios (vbios as Intel calls it) unless
you are God and posses Intel's "Bios Modification Utility". Trust me I have
tried many times and many ways to get it. So, you basically are stuck with
the binary blob you extract from your old bios, which half the time only
works to it's bare minimum. So, if we could come up with a tool to improve
binary blobs, I say go for it :-)
