I can now set the console to anything sane that it's predefined.
I guess what we want now is the perl script to convert RISC OS modedefs to
fbset's format...
(make install for fbset makes the /dev/fb[0-7] entries )

Xarmlinux in the testing dir works.
However, it resets that screen back to 640x480. Hmm. So my text console is
1280x1024, but X is at VGA. :-) I *thought* that they were both on /dev/fb0
so I must be doing something wrong here, but quite what I don't know.
It's nearly all working very nicely. :-)
Upgraded ppp to 2.3.6, as the kernel changes docs suggest I should.
insmod still doesn't want to do ppp. route reveals that eth0 is up, so
the kernel is loading that module. Odd.
