Could someone with the right hardware please check if XFree's suncg14
driver does The Right Thing? It's barebones and unaccelerated but it
should run in 24bit and whatever resolution the firmware set up.
The XFree86 Xserver and all the SPARC-specific framebuffer drivers
should be built in -current for quite some time now, for lack of
hardware I could only test cg6 and pnozz though, and even cg6 only on
sparc64.
Just running 'X -configure' in -current should give an almost usable
XF86Config, you'll probably need to add 'DefaultDepth 24' to the
"Screen" section but it should at least detect the cg14.

have fun
Michael
