RayeR -

Just a heads up -- MTRRLFBE can't seem to autodetect my linear-frame buffer. When i issue the command line:

  mtrrlfbe lfb wc

it displays the following message:

  MTRR-WC enabler for VESA LFB 1.3 (C) 2005-2011 by Martin Rehak; rayer@nospam.cz

  MTRR area 00000000-00FFFFFFh was set to mode: WC

Other programs report the LFB at E0000000h and are able to use it.
