At least until I know, lcd screens on laptops
behave almost the same as a regular vga monitor and
card on a desktop computer, if your machine is vga
compatible, you just would fire up ELKS with vga16
fbcon, if it does have it, of course. Regular text
console and svgalib would do the same. But I am not
to date with ELKS progress so I'm not very sure about
that.
