depends upon which EPIA board is being used.

If it's the old one it uses the VIA VT8601A (Apollo PLE133) chipset,  which
has a Trident VGA built in (Blade 3D?).

If it's one of the newer models,  then it has a S3 savage derived chipset.

Both have support in XFree86 if you want to try and scrounge up some code :-)

Now if I ever get around to building up a plan 9 system here,  I've been
intending to use the following as a terminal:

   Fanless,  silent,  small.
