About your patch, think we will better malloc line size buffer (when VM become ready) to not trap into "slow read from video mem" problem. Before VM come up, we have only one screen blank and since modern system mostly use main memory, it will be viable only for devices with separate video memory and only at boot time (or even use wr4 before VM became ready).
