I noticed two files scvgarndr.c and scgfbrndr.c which seem to do the job. How all this interacts with dev/fb code, if it does? Is it sufficient to implement a new scxxxrdnr.c file to use a different underlying interface which would propose the same functionnalities? Is scgfbrndr.c usable with an i386 machine? How?
