I've got a contract to support a machine with two 69030s supporting two 
monitors and two panels. I'm going to have to merge a lot of this code 
anyway over the next few weeks. So yes, I guess I'm volunteering.

What do people actually want the driver to do? Should we attempt to 
support the entire Chips/Asiliant range in one driver, or separate out 
the early IO based devices from the later memory mapped devices? I don't 
have access to the earlier devices, so I'll be fumbling in the dark with 
them unless somebody is prepared to mail me a card.
