Yes, I know - I'm quite a bit in the graphic business as well ,-) Though I also have some good old machines such as SPARC Stations around and usually want to write code in a way to not interfere with such older machines people still (might) want to use. Also I might even need a working 16 color fallback for the rare case neither vesafb nor a card specific fb driver takes over and it runs on the plain VGA FB console, yuck.
