Ah, yes, but that's a separate issue. We want to get 80x25 working first. For Linux, we don't care the least about 640x480. Of course, if there's enough argument otherwise, then perhaps we can up the priority. But first thing's first.
kernel inclusion, the 30 minute or so Linux install, and the 45 minute so Solaris 10 install, etc. Unless you are doing something like installing Gentoo from almost zero in which case you will need text mode for a lot longer even while everything compiles.
