Hello,

I did quite a lot of work on the cgsix driver for wscons and sparc64,
but before committing I need to be sure I didn't break the old console
code for sparc ( well, you /could/ run wscons with the new code if you
want... with colour support, acceleration, virtual consoles and all
that, with some not too complicated fiddling even XFree86 with some
acceleration, the additions are by no means sparc64-specific )=20
Anyway, please test this kernel:
http://macallan.homeunix.org:6704/stuff/BSD/sparc/GENERIC_05_14.bz2

Please try it, send me the dmesg output and tell me if the console works
properly. It should run on most sparcs, it's the GENERIC kernel after
all, but it only makes sense with a cg6 as console since the other
drivers are unchanged.

have fun
Michael
