Its up and working!

I have an image of eric3 on VMWare emulation attached.  (Majorly Jpeg
compressed so pardon for the artifacty-ness)   It all seems
to work fine.

It is however kind of cramped, which surprised me given the size of
the OLPC's screen.

I assume its either treating the screen as lower resolution or drawing
the fonts and such very large.  Any Eric wizzes out there know how to
fix that?
