Hello everyone,

> [xbox patches]

For your information: Warner (imp@) commited this some time ago now,
thanks! It's in HEAD now :-) The actual commit can be found at
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/i386/conf/XBOX.

I've got a patch set up for NOTES to inform people about the XBOX
options, per Warner's request. It can be found at 
http://rink.nu/downloads/xbox-patches/NOTES.diff. For some reason,
Warner doesn't seem to receive some of my mails (over-enthoisiastic spam
filtering perhaps?), which is why I'll post this mini-patch here.

As a status update, I've got a syscons(4)-ized version of the
framebuffer working. It's very kludgy and not yet ready; for some reason,
it doesn't yet work as a kernel console (when I enable this, by forcing
isa/syscons_isa.c to return my xboxfb driver for syscons, it initializes
fine but freezes afterwards)...

Who is the syscons(4) guru around here who can give me some pointers on
syscon's bootup behaviour? :-)
