Hi,

So if I wanted to start hacking looking at src/sys/dev/sun/cgsix*
would be a start, right?

Ok, next stupid question.  The only mention of tcx* is in 
./dev/sbus/.  I guess I misunderstand then why there is a 
./dev/sbus/cgsix_sbus.c and a dev/sbus/tcx.c, but there is only
files for cgsix* in src/sys/dev/sun.  Is this a result of wscons?

I guess a bit more digging is called for.

Thanks!

cheers
