  An unexpected syscons success story :) I got a bit excited and tried 
to build daemon saver, only to hit a few compile errors and unresolved 
symbols. Easy to fix though.

  With all this syscons excitement, the other obvious piece missing is 
the s/w mouse cursor. It's possible to select regions, though useless 
since the cursor can't be seen. Another piece that would be easy to fix 
for those sufficiently motivated.

later,

Peter.
