wsdisplay at ffb?
You need a wscons kernel for XFree86 ( ok, you can probably make it 
work without but that's likely far more painful than building a wscons 
kernel )

X -configure

It's untested. Or rather - I never tested it.

If you have wskbd, wsmouse etc. please mail me your XFree86.0.log. If 
you don't that's likely why it fails.

Not fatal ( used to be but I changed that long ago ) and has nothing to 
do with your problem. I /think/ I enabled building the sunffb driver on 
sparc too a while ago but I'm not too sure. It probably needs some 
hacking, those changes we made to get it to work properly on sparc64 
might have hosed it for 32bit sparc.

Should Just Work. Toss in as many cg6 as you have monitors ;)

have fun
