There really isn't a need for a separate file since it's pretty small. I
only separated it out to make it more visible.
I moved it inline, and resized, cleaned up, and inverted the default
penguin monochrome logo down to 40x40 from 80x80.
If anyone would like to add the 40x40 version of tux I made I'd be happy
to provide it.

It's used in several places so I'd prefer to keep the #define as I think
it makes the code more readable. As it turned out, this was a minor bug
left from an earlier iteration of the driver (before I added the
framebuffer code). The actual size need for the framebuffer is simply the
line length (160/8) * height (43).
The vbitmap of vertical bits actually transmitted still needs the rounding
plus a 32 byte offset at the beginning, resulting in a buffer of size 992.
I hard coded this into the #define and put the calculation in a comment.

It definitely did. Thanks.
