- It is an unfortunate side-effect of directly mapping the frame-buffer.
- The Mac uses 0 for white and 1 for black and the PC uses the opposite,
- so when we let programs go directly to the screen for speed, some
- video boards use the color table entry for what they think is black as
- the "overscan color". This probably won't be fixed by the time 2.0
- ships since it is video driver specific and right now we don't have
- the resources to take on video driver specific problems.
