>Description:
	The SRM firmware on the DPWS does not detect or initialize TGA devices.  I have the machine booting from a serial console, after which I attempt to start the X server.  The X server core dumps with a floating point error because the card isn't properly set up.  Here is the dmesg output for the card:

tga0 at pci1 dev 10 function 0: DC21030 step C, board type T8-02
tga0: 8192 x 0, 8bpp, Bt485 RAMDAC
tga0: interrupting at dec 550 irq 28
