The problem is that a Nitro 'Hi-Performance High-Res' video card
using the Cirrus 5434 chipset and 2Mb or VRAM, under FBSD 2.0 usually
boots up in colour chaos (often white on white or similar mess). Clearly
this is a colour map problem (the thing does do 24 bit colour), does anyone
know of a way round it ?
