My real question is, will intvidtest roll in the code from ADBTEST?  I
can't boot any other kernel on my machine besides ADBTEST, of the ones that
I've tried.  I haven't tried the intvidtest, though, as until it offers
color it gives me nothing I don't have.

If it doesn't, I'm going to be stuck adding the two together myself, I'm
afraid.  Oh well, I guess I finally have to make room on my drive for
kernel source(s).
