Hi!
I ftp-ed over the sun CG6 driver that you put on expo;  before installing
it, however, i was wondering whether this driver exploits the graphics
board or whatever else CG6 has to speed up stuff.  The reason I ask is
that right now we can run the generic mit X on our sparcstations
without problems, basically since it seems to use /dev/fb.  Do you think
that with the CG6 driver, it would be faster than /dev/fb.

Thanks
.
