Greetings !

After fiddling around a bit with the /dev/grf0 interface to the graphics =
board inside my 345 I think I could manage to rewrite the hp300's =
console driver, or at least add color support what's still missing... It =
would even be possible to use different fonts ( loaded into offscreen =
memory ) other than this 8x8 thing from the BootROM we all know... some =
of Linux' console fonts may be useable.=20

OK, now to the questions:
- what colors should a hp300h terminal use ? The standard 16 color ANSI =
map ?=20
- could anyone send me a bit of documentation to the recent console =
driver ?
- is anyone working at this already ?

bye
Michael
