Comment(by wmb at firmworks.com):

 scp http://dev.laptop.org/~wmb/q3a15k.rom is a test version that uses
 32bpp mode for the frame buffer.  I think all the graphics stuff works -
 the pretty boot screen and "menu" certainly do.

 Instead of changing the images embedded in OFW, I left them in 565 format
 to save space, and amended the graphics display routines to expand on-the-
 fly when rendering to a 32-bpp framebuffer.
