Yay.  The 65550 is actually pretty qool; I have run mine doing 
sync-on-green driving a 21" Apollo monitor at 1152x900x16bpp.  The XF86 
driver is pretty stable; I occasionally get the server exploding when I 
swap back from a vty, but that's about it.

At this point in time, it certainly seems to be the best chipset to 
look for in a portable from the free-software point of view.
