Hello,
I'm running NetBSD 1.5 on a SparcStation 10SX that has the daughter card
(p/n 501-2020) on it for an additional framebuffer. It has two video
connectors. It also has two 8MB VSIMMs so theoretically I can get two 24
bit framebuffers running on it.
Is there any way to compile the kernel so that both framebuffers are
supported? I 'hacked' the config file and rebuilt to support multiple
framebuffers, and the kernel found the extra cgfourteen but wasn't able to
connect it to a /dev (do I create a second /dev/fb somehow?).
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
