Would it take a lot of work to port the driver to the new interface? I'm not sure which SPARC machines use this particular framebuffer, but my plans are to fix up all these old framebuffer drivers. I have already received several Amiga (Zorro) graphics cards for testing the updated drivers on Amiga. It could be that I actually have this particular SPARC framebuffer in my hardware collection.
