hi, all:

    Collin has submit the 'Fancy Menu', when it will be available on the main 
svn thread? 

And i want to make sure: 

- the fancy menu will support two bytes language?

- the vbe engine support non linear frame buffer modes? 

        i read the vbe.c line 445: 

        /* We support only linear frame buffer modes.  */, 

        if so, the graphic menu will not be available for some hardware or 
screen resolution.

- grub video uses double buffering, if this is available. if not, the bliting 
will be very slow. so,  how about using clip-box to improve it? backup area -> 
draw contents -> recover area -> draw new contents. ( by using this, there is 
no need to switch a whole screen. ^_^ )

- can the VBE engine support 16 bits (5:6:5) mode?


i've not familiar with grub2's video system, so, please help me out. Thanks!
