+is a UPA based color frame buffer, found in some Sun SBus and PCI systems.
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports both the Creator/Creator3D, and the Elite3D frame buffers.
+.Pp
+There are several versions of the
+.Nm
+board.

+The
+.Sq Creator
+cards have 5MB of on-board memory, support a maximum graphics resolution
+of 1280x1024, and are single-buffered.
+.Pp
+The
+.Sq Creator3D
+cards have 15MB of on-board memory support a maximum resolution of
+1280x1024 double-buffered, and 1920x1360 single-buffered.
+.Pp
+The
+.Sq Elite3D
+cards have 15MB of on-board memory, support a maximum resolution of
+1280x1024, and are always double-buffered.
+The
+.Sq Elite3D-m3
+cards have one hardware geometry engine, whereas the
+.Sq Elite3D-m6
+cards have two.
+.Pp
+The
+.Sq Series 3
+cards are considerably faster than the
+.Sq Series 1
+and
+.Sq Series 2
+cards.
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports reading
+.Dv EDID
+data from connected monitors, and will automatically set a resolution that is
+supported by both the card and the monitor if the
+.Dv EDID
+data can be read.
+This can be overridden for the console frame buffer, by setting the
+.Dv output-device
+openprom variable.
+For example, the following openprom command will set the console resolution
+to 1280x1024 @ 60Hz, which will not be altered by the
+.Nm
+driver.

+It is necessary to blank the video output when reading

+Not all
+.Dv 13W3
+to

+converters connect
+.Dv 13W3
+pin 2 to
+.Dv VGA
+pin 9.
+This pin supplies +5V DC to power the monitor
+.Dv EEPROM,
+even when the monitor
+is powered off, and is necessary in order to obtain
+.Dv EDID
+data on some monitors.
