This is wrong. Memory mapping of devices does in fact work, just not via
/dev/mem. You can mmap() a framebuffer via wscons or - in case it's an
ffb or an SBus device - via /dev/fb*.

It is possible, provided you're using 3.0 or newer. Older versions
don't have wscons. On 2.x you can still use /dev/fb* but mmap()ing PCI
framebuffers will be tricky.

have fun
