That's ... um ... kinda big.
Yes, it is. This implements
- MergedFB mode with Xv and HWCursor - and a *lot* of tweaks for customized hardware.
SiS never makes the cards, but only the chips. And there is about a million ways to connect the VGA controller to the video bridge. This requires a lot of fiddling, not only to identify such hardware (no, they don't use the PCI subsystem ID - would be far too easy) but also to implement their idiotic way to setup LCD output which is to be done differently on about every machine nowadays.
