Oh damn. And here I thought that lack of sparc SMP support was the
only thing standing between me and running NetBSD on my main
machine. Now it appears that my xbox is not only unequivocally _not_
an engineering marvel, but also probably non-working in terms of
driver support.
Oh well. Could someone at least remove the driver from the tree so
people don't get their hopes up, or put a note in GENERIC to the
effect that it's buggy?
