We are desperately trying to get X11R4 running on the SUN 4/330GXP. As SUN is not porting OpenWindows to this machine (WHY!?) we have resorted to trying the MIT "cfb" code. Has anyone done this? or has anyone ever ported X11 onto any full colour (24bit) frame buffer? Failing that, has anyone found a reasonably cheap framebuffer to use instead of the CG9/GP2. We have looked at Megatek, who promise a full colour version of their X-elerator board (soon honest). What are these rumours about a new full colour sparcstation 1 ?? Please mail direct as SUNSPOTS is hard to keep up with sometimes! Kirk Martinez, Birkbeck College, London. tel:(044) (071) 6316110 k.martinez@uk.ac.ucl.pyramid
