The driver you are using doesn't support LT and LE chipsets. A blank screen
is generally what you get when you use the "wrong" driver. Everything else
should work normally, tho (read: telnet in to recompile/reboot ;).

I had just added support for LT and LE (from Paul Mackerras' Mac tree -- who
gets credit for this?) earlier this weekend along with hardware cursor and a
slew of other changes.
I just have one last issue to clean up (rectfills and blits do NOT play well
together) and I'll send it out for testing/criticism.
