Hello Dominic,

Actually it was Girish Gulawani who said he used the MILO bios not Zhang. He said he was using the files vgaraw1.c and vgaraw2.c from MILO. Those files do not use the x86emu BIOS emulator but try to directly initialize the VGA adapter.

Is Algorithmics BIOS emulator not the x86emu code that can be found in the Alpha MILO and the XFree86 code base as Alan Cox mentioned?

It's an entirely indepedent invention of the same idea. I've no idea whether it's any better/worse, but it sounded like our binary was working for Zhang better than the MILO he'd built.
