[Voyage-linux] Alix1/3 VGA support (lxfb)

[Gonçal Badenes]

Actually, I would also be interested in optimized support for the 
framebuffer: we are running an ALIX.1 with voyage as an IP camera 
monitoring station (it's in a corridor, showing the output of a remote 
IP camera), running mplayer on the framebuffer. The performance is 
actually OK without hardware optimisation, but it might be better with it ;)

Cheers,

    Gonçal
