The 2.4.8 tables are _completely_ out of date.

The up to date tables say:

226 char Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI)
0 = /dev/dri/card0 First graphics card
1 = /dev/dri/card1 Second graphics card

Peter - was this dual issued, or do Sangoma need to be spanked. The obvious
place to put the sdla tty would I think be 229, since its not physically
possible to put one in an iSeries machine.
