Why don't you just use GGI ? GGI handles the colours, uses accelleration
if available, etc. Or do you want to join us developping the driver ?
Besides, virge ACCEL_DRAWCIRCLE does return an -E(ACCEL,BOGUS). Unless
this error is mapped to 0, you should get an errorvalue... I'll check that
one out tonight. (Anything but 0 is an error value)
