Hi All;
I committed the bugfixes Thomas made to interp.cc, and I committed his
VGA driver. (Thomas, I had a little trouble -- there were two copies of
the vga class -- I nuked the first one, and the second one seemed to
work. Let me know if I picked the wrong one!)
Per Thomas' direction, I added (and you will want to add) the following
lines to init.java:
jos.platform.driver.vga seton=new jos.platform.driver.vga();
seton.initvga();
seton.test();
I rebuilt the arch/i386 target, and, Lo and Behold.... it DID something!
If I saw correctly, it cleared the screen and made some falling
horizontal bars in multiple colors, and then left a little green
checkmark on the screen. (Thomas, please tell me if this is the desired
behavior. By the way, I especially like the little checkmark at the end
of the run!).
Great job, Thomas!

p.s., I only did this tonight because I was feeling guilty at holding
things up -- please don't expect any further responses from me until
after FedEx deadline on Tuesday... I'm in the midst of a Day Job
crisis!
