Hi!

I've built this using an old ATI All-in-Wonder Pro (Mach64/Rage Pro/ViVo) PCI.
"-vo vesa:vidix" works with the built in TV-Out (connect it to TV _before_
powering on the PC). You can use your TV as text console, too. No need for
a monitor!

Im working on using my selfmade VGA->Scart/RGB Cable with it, too.
