Neat - seems to work fine.

Are you sure the vga environment variable is the right way (tm) to 
detect a framebuffer display?

Works fine at both 1600x1200@16 and 1400x1050@24.  Note for higher 
resoluation modes it could be nice to have the option not to center the 
render view but put it in the upper right corner (so you can see text 
messages when doing renders smaller than screen size).
