I even know who wrote it... Donald Dugger. He forwarded it to me also, and 
I even think it is part of the RFB patch (too lazy to check right now).

There are two problems:

- configuration is a bitch. For example, X and gpm do not play nice 
together. And there is no automatic detection for Summagraphics in kudzu 
(which is the automatic hardware detection of Knoppix).

- the patch modifies the PS/2 mouse of QEmu. However, there is no such 
thing as a PS/2 Summagraphics. Consequently, all win98 drivers I found did 
not detect a Summagraphics device.
