Has anyone looked at the framebuffer stuff that's standard in the new kernels?
It's on the LBT along with framebuffer X  and it works pretty well.

Or, and here's a sick thought GNUstep's Display Ghostscript to the framebuffer
, it'd be sort'a like a NeXT box, only gnuer (like certain wildly popular
