Re: OpenGL-based framebuffer concepts

Hi!

My thoughts are mixed on continuing to support text mode for anything
other than initial boot/install. Linux is all about multiple languages
and the character ROMs for text mode don't support all of these
languages.

On most servers, you don't need (and you don't want) anything like that.
In such cases, everything should be kept simple.

Have a nice fortnight
