Ian,

It looks like you gave a pre-approved Ack to something almost identical
to v10.  The only thing in v10 not in your pre-approval specification
was removing the thing automatically setting vga=vmware.  Instead in v10
he added a patch to take 'vmware' as an explicit argument to vga.

Patch 2 is reviewed-by Andy Cooper (and can have an Ack from me if it's
wanted), and patches 1-3 constitute a sensible chunk of functionality --
if you could take a quick look over 1 and 3 and give them a thumbs-up, I
think it might make sense to go ahead and check those in.

(Still working through the rest of the patches.)
