On a second look there's something else I don't understand. The vram
window is in RAM in stdvga, it's inside phys_ram_base, and the entire
chunk pointed to by phys_ram_base is saved in vl.c. It's also
saved/loaded as one of the first things that are loaded so at the time
stdvga resumes, the vram should already have the correct contents.
Regards
