Sync-On-Green now works. What's HAL and what does it have against the
SyncOnGreen mga option?
OpenGL stuff still won't work. So, I guess I need to find the source

You are correct, the

The frame buffer driver works flawlessly! The boot line I use is:

The sync-on-green issue might be either 1) composite sync isn't being

or the X mga driver does it, or 2) some bad DAC register offsets in the
X driver.
From debugging, I'm pretty sure I'm taking the sync-on-green path
through
