Here are the relevant lines from the 4.0 /usr/sys/sun3/conf/GENERIC: # 3/60 P4 color frame buffer device cgfour0 at obmem 7 csr 0xff300000 priority 4 # 3/60 # 3/60 plug-in color frame buffer device cgfour0 at obmem 7 csr 0xff400000 priority 4 # 3/60 # Support for monochrome memory frame buffers on various machines. device bwtwo0 at obmem 7 csr 0xff000000 priority 4 # 3/60 # 3/60 P4 color frame buffer overlay plane, or P4 monochrome frame buffer device bwtwo1 at obmem 7 csr 0xff300000 priority 4 # 3/60 # 3/60 plug-in color frame buffer overlay plane device bwtwo1 at obmem 7 csr 0xff400000 # 3/60 There are 2 flavors of plug-in cg4 frame buffer: 1. The "3/60 color frame buffer", normally shipped with 3/60s; will *not* work in 4/110s. 2. The "P4 color frame buffer", normally shipped with 4/110s; will also work in 3/60s, but is not necessarily supported. It turned out to be convenient to have separate config file entries for the two types. David DiGiacomo, Sun Microsystems, Mt. View, CA sun!david david@sun.com
