Anything above 8 bpp doesn't work yet with XF68_FBDev. We're working on that.

The boot logo colors are also wrong in 16 bpp with my ATI (which uses true
color) on Linux/PPC.

Boot logo colors are fine in 32 bpp with my ATI. To solve the text color
problem, you probably have to mungle the RGB fields when filling in
fbcon_cfb32_cmap[]. Anyway, this wasn't tested on little endian yet, so there
may be some bugs lurking in fbcon-cfb32.c too.

The keyboard problems can be solved by putting the keyboard in K_MEDIUMRAW
mode instead of RAW mode (xc/.../os-support/linux/lnx_io.c).
