Not really a big deal.

During my last gentoo build (my 7th or 8th time already, I like to break the systems doing dumb crap like rudely unmerging gcc :P), I noticed the latest 2.6 kernel has 'experimental' support for EFI.

The fact that they got the framebuffer to work is what's really shocking though. That's some pretty good hackin going on!!!
