Hey, I got a picture without running X! But it still isn't fun, I have 
to type blind ... or from something other than the graphical console.

That is, matroxfb on and jumbled (and a bad refresh rate too), and 
blind-typing my way to mga_vid_test ... which produces the right 
picture. Attaching a screenshot of that. 

(No, the background isn't gray, it's a tighter pattern than the camera 
can cope with.)
