 No, not at all :-) I love that 0x0 display :-)
 Well, currently init_pi() returns -1 and thus the picasso-board is recognized
but fails to initialize - i guess i should start coding init_pi() :-) - and
ite switches over to grf0 as console (ECS).

 Well, i got a cheap Picasso - and there is a very stable X server for
Amix available already... Why not combining this? 

 Is there a guide for 'how to write grf-devices' or 'how to write a
NetBSd-device' available somewhere (no, i don't intend to buy a book...)?
