It seems there is still some pb with the G450 setup but not with my
card. :(
I have been really too busy at work to fix the problem, but I'll take
a look at the code by the end of this week.
Anyway it seems the vgamga4xx.c was not compiled into the kernel,
because the Release 4 setup failed on my computer :
Indeed : [VGAINFO.TXT:]
main->snarf
vga->snarf
mga4xx->snarf
mga4xx->snarf
mga4xx: G450 rev 2
sequencer->enter on
sequencer->leave on
mga4xx: can't set mga type
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ -> ~= echo 'type=mga' > /dev/vga failed.

I've just read /sys/src/9/pc/pcflop and there is no vgamga4xx
referenced in the file.
Here is the right file ... (I hope :) )
