I simply mixed in a different branch, which was not the intention, sorry 
for the noise, I'll resend.

Actually the above is only a glitch, the output sits there since more 
than a year (probably adjusted at some point).
I just didn't realize that print_cpuinfo does the same.
I'll be contributing the video stuff in one of the next patches for tt01 
and fix it then, so thanks for your review, even though I'll remove it 
from this patch.
