Guys,

My SPARCstation 20's card works fine with X, but doesn't agree with
links -g. I normally run X using -cc in grayscale:

xinit -- -ar1 200 -ar2 50 -cc 0

But in color or grayscale links trashes the current pallet--the
background flips to black, and most of the screen is unreadable. When I
exit links it's all good again.

Is this a feature in the cgsix framebuffer that links is trying to
leverage?

dmesg output:

cgsix0 at sbus0 slot 1 offset 0x0 level 9: SUNW,501-2325, 1152 x 900,
rev 11 (console)cgsix0: attached to /dev/fb

thanks,
