Does any distro package this? It's the best there ever was for DOS users. I would
test if I could find an .rpm (Mageia, openSUSE, Fedora) or .deb (Buster, AntiX) to
install.

Without nomodeset on ET6100 I get black screen framebuffer booting Buster or
Tumbleweed.

Trying X in Buster or TW neither FBDEV nor VESA succeeds:

AntiX fbdev works @1024x768:
